Abstract

A process of manufacture and an article produced by the process in the form of a lead glass substrate. The substrate is discretely marked during the manufacturing process by directing a flame upon it that is deficient in oxygen to provide a darkened or black marking in the glass surface. The invention is especially useful for marking electric lamps.
