FAQs

Blow moulded glass involves inflating molten glass inside a patterned metal or wooden mould to transfer decorative motifs onto the vessel. This technique became widely utilised in American and European factories during the early to mid-19th century, particularly around the 1830s.

Nineteenth-century American glassware was typically produced using potash or lead glass formulations. The metal was melted in large pot furnaces and manipulated by hand using traditional glassblowing irons, moulds, and applied handles.

Authentication relies on examining characteristics such as pontil marks on the base, minor manufacturing imperfections like air bubbles and straw marks, mould seams that align with period production techniques, and the characteristic weight and clarity of the glass.

An antique glass jug can be incorporated into modern spaces as a standalone decorative object on a shelf, used as a vase for fresh botanical stems, or displayed on a sideboard to catch natural light and showcase its tactile surface textures.

Antique glass should be washed by hand using warm water and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Harsh chemicals and sudden temperature changes must be avoided to protect fragile historic surfaces from thermal shock or scratching.
