He worked in slipware, and is one of the first potters known to have signed and dated his work. His name was included in a 1776 list drawn up by Josiah Wedgwood "having examined some of the oldest men in the pottery here [...] who knew personally the masters in the pottery..." and published in his A History of the Adams Family of North Staffordshire. Glass' work, which has been compared to that of Thomas Toft, is in a number of public collections, including a posset pot (inscribed "Joseph Glass S.V. H.G.") in the British Museum, and a cradle, dated 1703, item in the J. W. L. Glaisher collection at the Fitzwilliam Museum. In March 2020, a jug with his signature, and the date 1701, was shown on the BBC Television programme Antiques Roadshow. It was valued at £20,000 by John Sandon. (en)
