Antique glassware should be hand-washed gently in tepid water using mild, non-abrasive soap and dried immediately with a lint-free cloth, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners and extreme temperature shifts.

An antique glass vessel can be displayed individually on an open bookshelf, grouped within a glazed cabinet, or used to introduce historic texture and rich colour to a tablescape.

Authentic period examples typically exhibit pontil marks on the base, characteristic irregularities and bubbles within the hand-blown glass, and natural wear consistent with age rather than machine manufacture.

These pieces were mouth-blown using potash-lime or lead glass, with the distinctive amber hue achieved by adding metallic oxides such as iron or carbon to the molten batch.

The roemer is a traditional Germanic drinking vessel that evolved from Renaissance forms, characterised by a large bowl resting on a cylindrical shaft adorned with applied prunts and a conical foot formed by wrapping hot glass around a core.
