FAQs

Air twist glasses feature elongated spiral bubbles trapped within the stem, created by manipulating air-filled cavities in the molten glass before drawing and twisting.

These vessels were typically made from lead glass, introduced in the late 17th century, which allowed for clearer walls and finer optical manipulations like twists and facets.

Authentic pieces often exhibit pontil marks on the underside of the foot, tiny surface imperfections, micro-abrasions from age, and variations in the thickness and distribution of the internal air threads.

Such pieces can be displayed singly or in small groupings within glass-fronted cabinets, open shelving, or utilised as refined table accents to add historic texture to modern dining setups.

Wash by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent without harsh chemicals, and dry carefully with a lint-free cloth, avoiding sudden temperature changes to prevent thermal shock.
