A Fabulous Georgian Cut Glass Lidded Butter Dish

19th century
Description

A fabulous cut glass butter dish from the Georgian period. This gorgeous example is of rounded form, with stunning cutting to the body and lid, in the Irish taste. The base is cut with an elaborate multi-point star and there is extensive cut decoration to both parts. The lid is removed via a facet cut knop and there is a cut plinth foot. These fine pieces are good collector's items and rather difficult to find, particularly with lids intact. A good example both practical and decorative. Dimensions below.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Georgian cut glass from the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries is recognised for its high lead content, substantial weight, and deeply hand-cut geometric patterns designed to refract light.

These vessels were primarily blown and hand-cut from heavy lead crystal glass, incorporating thick bases and matching glass lids with hand-finished finials.

Authentic pieces often exhibit minor hand-cutting irregularities, faint wear marks on the base, a resonant tone when gently tapped, and a distinct weight due to the high oxide of lead in the glass batch.

Lidded glass dishes can be displayed on sideboards, used on a dining table as a condiment server, or repurposed on a dressing table to store small items.

Wash the glass by hand in lukewarm water using a mild liquid detergent and a soft cloth, avoiding extreme temperature shifts and dishwasher use to prevent clouding or cracking.
