FAQs

A Lynn wine glass is characterised by its distinctive round-funnel bowl featuring horizontal mould-blown flutes or ribs, typically produced in England during the mid-18th century.

These pieces were crafted from lead glass, known for its high refractive index and weight, often utilizing techniques such as mould-blowing for the bowl and air-twist or opaque-twist processes for the stem.

Authentic examples often display a pontil mark on the underside of the foot, characteristic surface wear or patination known as schlieren, and subtle asymmetries consistent with hand-blown production.

Antique glassware can be displayed within glass-fronted cabinets or styled on open shelving to highlight historical texture and transparency against modern backgrounds.

Antique glass should be washed by hand in lukewarm water using a mild detergent, avoiding sudden temperature changes and abrasive materials to protect the delicate surface.
