FAQs

Victorian cranberry glass is a type of translucent pinkish-red glass created by adding gold chloride to the molten glass batch, popular during the 19th century for tableware and decorative items.

Overshot glass is produced by rolling a hot glass vessel over fine fragments or threads of glass, which adhere to the surface and create a rough, frosted texture.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit pontil marks on the base from hand-blowing, natural surface wear, and slight irregularities in thickness and colour distribution consistent with period manufacturing methods.

An antique glass jug can be displayed on an open shelf, sideboard, or mantelpiece to introduce colour and historical texture to a modern room scheme.

Antique glass should be washed by hand in lukewarm water using a mild, non-abrasive detergent and dried thoroughly with a soft lint-free cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals and sudden temperature changes.
