Oxbow says: In 1956, D. B. Harden published his ‘Glass Vessels of Britain and Ireland AD400-1000’, noting that Kent had by far the most surviving vessels with 171. Winifred Stephens’ study updates Harden’s survey of glass vessels from Kent, taking account of vessels found since 1956, as well as those previously noted as lost and those that have been restored from disparate fragments. The vessels included date from the end of the Roman period, c. mid-5th century, to the end of the 7th century. Her discussion of the different vessel types and their distribution is concise (37 pages) with the larger part of the volume consisting of appendices listing museum collections, missing/lost vessels, and an update of vessels found since the completion of this study.
