FAQs

An 18th-century light baluster wine glass is a type of drinking vessel characterised by its slender stem featuring decorative nodes or swellings, developed following the introduction of lead crystal in England.

These glasses were traditionally manufactured using heavy lead glass, often referred to as flint glass, which provided high clarity, weight, and a resonant ring when struck.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit pontil marks on the underside of the foot, surface wear consistent with age, minor air bubbles trapped within the metal, and the characteristic greyish-blue hue of early lead glass.

Antique stemware can be displayed within glass-fronted cabinets, used as tabletop focal points on sideboards, or styled in open shelving units to introduce historical texture to contemporary spaces.

Antique glass should be washed by hand using warm water and mild detergent, avoiding abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals, and dried carefully with a lint-free cloth.
