FAQs

Georgian glassware, produced during the reigns of the Hanoverian kings (1714 to 1830), is characterised by lead crystal compositions, heavy kick-up feet, and distinct stem formations such as air twists, opaque twists, and faceted cuts.

These glasses were hand-blown using lead metal glass, with the intricate white or coloured enamel threads encased within the stem using complex manipulation techniques before being joined to the bowl and foot.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the pontil mark on the underside of the foot, the weight and greyish refraction of the lead metal, tool marks from hand-forming, and the presence of genuine age-related surface wear.

Antique stemware can be displayed within glass-fronted cabinets, on open shelving with adequate lighting, or utilised selectively within a curated table setting to add historical depth and texture to a room.

Antique glassware should always be washed by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent, never placed in a dishwasher, and stored securely away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations.
