Glasfabriek Leerdam
The Glass Factory Leerdam was a glass factory in Leerdam where many prominent designers worked or delivered designs. The glass factory has ceased its activities since 1 August 2020. The glass factory was known under the name of Royal Leerdam Crystal. The activities have been taken over by the parent company Royal Delft.

Christiaan Antoon Jeekel and J.J. Mijnssen were two former partners of the company Jeekel, Mijnssen & Co., which operated a hard glass factory from 1875 to 1877. This glass production was carried out according to the system of A. de la Bastie and the company was reasonably well known.

The Leerdam Glass Factory was taken over in 1938 by the Vereenigde Glasfabrieken in Schiedam.

In 1958, filmmaker Bert Haanstra made the corporate film "Over glas gesproken" (talking 'bout glass), about the glass production process, commissioned by the Vereenigde Glasfabrieken. Bert Haanstra then made the free film Glass in the Leerdam glass factories. This artistic film about glass making won an Oscar in 1960.
