The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in the early 18th century, balustroid stem glasses are drinking vessels featuring a modified baluster or knopped stem, influenced by architectural motifs during the Georgian period.

These glasses were typically mouth-blown using heavy lead glass, characterised by a conical foot, a polished or rough pontil mark, and solid stems shaped with decorative knops.

Authentic pieces often show faint striations, tiny seed bubbles within the glass matrix, natural wear patterns underneath the foot rim, and a pontil mark on the base from the glassmaker rod.

Displaying antique glasses inside a lit glazed cabinet, on a dining room sideboard top, or arranged across a drinks trolley creates a refined, historic focal point.

Wash by hand using lukewarm water and mild dish soap, avoiding extreme temperature changes and dishwashers to prevent thermal shock and clouding.
