FAQs

Georgian glassware, produced during the reigns of the four King Georges from 1714 to 1830, is characterised by heavy lead metal composition, classical proportions, and various stem formations such as air, multi-spiral, and opaque twists.

These pieces were crafted from lead crystal glass, using intricate manipulation techniques while the metal was molten to trap elongated air bubbles inside the stem before drawing and twisting it into shape.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit pontil marks on the underside of the foot, wear marks appropriate for their age, small inclusions or bubbles within the lead metal, and hand-cut or wheel-engraved ornamentation rather than machine etching.

Displaying antique stemware within glass-fronted cabinets, on open shelving with adequate lighting, or using individual pieces as bud vases brings historical texture and refined craftsmanship into modern living spaces.

Historic glass should always be washed by hand in warm water using mild detergent, avoiding sudden temperature changes to prevent thermal shock, and dried thoroughly with a lint-free cloth.
