FAQs

A Georgian cut glass tea caddy is a small, decorative container crafted during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, designed to store valuable loose-leaf tea safely and securely in affluent households.

These pieces were typically made from heavy lead crystal or flint glass, shaped using lead-free or high-lead formulations, and meticulously hand-cut with geometric patterns using a rotating wheel.

Authenticity is indicated by heavy base weight due to high lead content, irregularities such as tiny air bubbles or pontil marks on the underside, and hand-cut facets that show soft wear rather than machine-moulded uniformity.

It can be displayed on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or open shelving to catch the light, paired with contemporary minimalist objects to highlight its historic craftsmanship and clear refractive quality.

Clean the glass gently using lukewarm water and mild soap with a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, and handle with care to prevent chipping the delicate hand-cut edges.
