FAQs

A Georgian balustroid wine glass typically features a drawn trumpet bowl joined to a stem with transitional baluster characteristics, often incorporating knops and a folded foot.

These pieces were predominantly crafted from heavy lead crystal, developed in the late 17th century, which allowed for deeper refraction and thicker wall construction.

Authenticity is assessed through characteristics such as surface wear, pontil marks on the base, inclusions or bubbles within the lead metal, and the specific weight and ring of the glass.

Antique stemware can be displayed within illuminated cabinet shelving or styled on a sideboard as a focal point of historical craftsmanship.

Antique glass should be hand washed gently in lukewarm water using mild detergent and dried immediately with a lint-free cloth, avoiding abrasive sponges and dishwashers.
