FAQs

A Georgian double ended dram measure is an 18th or early 19th-century glass vessel designed with two different capacity bowls joined by a central stem, used for measuring spirits in public houses and homes.

These items were traditionally hand-blown using lead crystal or flint glass, featuring a knopped stem between the two bowls and occasional pontil marks at the junction or base.

Authentic pieces often exhibit signs of period hand production, such as slight asymmetry, minute air bubbles, a rough or ground pontil mark, and characteristic wear to the rims.

Position the glass on a drinks trolley, home bar cabinet, or open sideboard alongside contrasting glassware and polished brass accessories to highlight its historic silhouette.

Wash gently by hand using lukewarm water and a mild detergent, avoiding dishwashers or hot water which can induce thermal shock and cause clouding of the glass.
