FAQs

Peking glass refers to Chinese imperial glasswares produced from the Qing dynasty onwards, specifically utilized to hold powdered tobacco during social gatherings.

These bottles are typically crafted by layering contrasting colours of molten glass, then laboriously hand-carving the top layer to create relief designs.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the wear on the base, the quality of the glass matrix, tool marks from hand-carving, and the fitting of the stopper and spoon.

Display the piece within a glass cabinet, on a bookshelf, or atop a coffee table tray to highlight its intricate craftsmanship and translucent qualities.

Keep the object away from direct sunlight, clean it only with a soft dry cloth, and avoid submerging it in liquids to protect any delicate stoppers.
