Glass is known to deteriorate under environmental conditions and therefore it is of major concern to conservationist, cultural heritage funs and Museum Institutions. However, glass art products are common wares, which are made and sold by artists in the low-income groups of different Kenyan communities. They are therefore an economic asset and bread provider for many poor households. For the...
