To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In the long run the economies prevail, and uses are not thrown away. But when it is argued that it is wrong to cast iron because its ductility and malleability are not made use of to the fullest, then I say that is also a question of use. If cast-iron is found to be useful and economical, who are these philosophers, that we are to attend to their veto ? Of course practical people do not attend to these men at all, who, however, address themselves to artists ; and, unfortunately, an exaggerated ...view of the necessities of ma- terial threatens to limit the liberty and scope of decorative art.
If wrought-iron is to be used, let the artist make such a design as the smith will delight to execute ; but if that should be too dear, or many of the same pattern should be wanted, I cannot myself see the sin of having them made of cast-iron, provided they answer their purpose.
Again, blowing exhibits the quality of glass admirably, and it is delightful to see the numberless beautiful forms that the glass almost naturally assumes in the hands of a workman of intelligence and taste ; but, because blown glass is beautiful, is cast and cut glass to be condemned ?
