1878 report states that St Gobain set the works up to produce Plate Glass for the local market.
So where does Schmid come in Pamela? All we have in the Study is from 1878:
Jos. Ed. Schmid, Annathal.
The usual variety of colored glass fancy articles. This house also exhibited a style of crystal heavily cut hanging baskets, with handsome cut drops, which were in very good taste and beautiful. Many small bouquet-holders in iridescent glass, blown very thin, had heavy solid feet; the display of the iridescent colors gave these goods quite a pleasing appearance.
The only other glassworks I have listed in Stolberg, made mirrors.
