Hobbs, Brockunier and Company of Wheeling, W. Va., was the main producer of satin glass (Similar glass was made in England and during the same period). A dull matte finish made by submerging the vessel in a corrosive acid or in the fumes of acid. The process was synonymous with "frosting" of fancy art made in the United States during the last half of the 19th century.
