Home Dictionary Name: glass wareGlass ware
Glass ware, the dictionary meaning of the expres-sion 'glass ware' is 'articles made of glass' (see WEBSTER'S NEW WORLD DICTIONARY).However, in commercial sense glass ware would never comprise articles like clinical syringes, thermometers, lectometers, and the like which have specialised significance and utility. In popular or commercial parlance a general merchant dealing in 'glass ware' does not ordinarily deal in articles like clinical syringes, thermometers, medical stores or with the manufacturers thereof like the assessee.
