Historic glass should be washed strictly by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent, avoiding harsh chemicals, extreme temperature changes, and ultrasonic cleaners.

Displaying the piece inside a glazed cabinet or on an open shelf with adequate backlighting allows the rich colour and translucent qualities to stand out as a focal point.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the pontil scar on the underside of the base, natural manufacturing irregularities such as tiny air bubbles, and wear marks consistent with age.

These items were crafted using lead or soda-lime glass, inflated into a ribbed dip-mould to create vertical surface patterns before being expanded and finished by hand on a pontil iron.

Late 18th-century coloured glassware typically featured rich, saturated hues achieved by adding metallic oxides to the glass batch, often shaped using traditional free-blown and mould-blowing techniques.
