The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Produced during the 18th century, these glass vessels feature wheel-engraved symbols associated with the Jacobite movement, which supported the restoration of the House of Stuart to the British throne.

These pieces were typically blown from lead or flint glass, incorporating hand-ground stoppers and detailed wheel-engraved or acid-etched decorative motifs.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit pontil marks, micro-scratches from natural usage wear on the base, slight asymmetrical hand-blown variations, and specific Jacobite iconography such as white roses, thistles, or birds in flight.

Small decorative glass bottles can be displayed on a vanity tray, styled within a glass cabinet, or arranged alongside antique leather-bound books on a bookshelf.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals or temperature shocks, and dry thoroughly with a soft microfibre cloth to prevent moisture build-up inside the bottle.
