FAQs

Georgian glassware, spanning the reigns of the Hanoverian kings from 1714 to 1830, is characterised by heavy lead-oxide composition, deep tonal resonance, and refined hand-blown forms ranging from plain stems to complex air and opaque twists.

These vessels were typically fashioned from heavy flint glass, containing high amounts of lead oxide to improve clarity and weight. Masters utilised free-blowing techniques alongside specialized tooling to draw stems and apply distinct twists.

Authentic pieces often exhibit characteristic pontil marks on the underside of the foot, subtle asymmetrical imperfections from hand-crafting, and heavy wear scratches known as age cracks or foot rim wear.

Such historic objects serve as striking focal points when displayed within illuminated glass-front cabinets, on open shelving alongside modern ceramics, or curated upon a dedicated side table arrangement.

Antique glass must always be washed by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent, avoiding sudden temperature changes to prevent thermal shock, and should never be placed in a dishwasher.
