FAQs

Palais Royal items were luxury souvenirs purchased by wealthy travellers during the nineteenth-century Grand Tour of Europe, often featuring elaborate metal mounts and fine materials.

These pieces typically combine pressed or blown glass, such as uranium or vaseline glass, with intricately chased brass, silver-gilt, or pinchbeck metalwork mounts.

Authentic pieces exhibit a characteristic bright green or yellow fluorescence under ultraviolet (UV) light due to the inclusion of uranium oxide in the glass batch.

They can be displayed on mirrored trays, mantelpieces, or inside illuminated glass cabinets to highlight their colour and intricate metalwork.

Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth or lukewarm water with mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals that could damage historic metal mounts or fragile glass surfaces.
