Victorian pressed glass refers to glassware items manufactured during the 19th century using mechanical pressing techniques. Molten glass was poured into metal moulds and compressed with a plunger to create detailed geometric patterns quickly and efficiently.

Victorian glassmakers added metallic oxides to the silica glass batch to achieve distinct colours. Cobalt oxide was added to create deep blue glass, which was then poured into iron or bronze moulds to shape the vessel.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit visible mould seam lines, slight irregularities or tiny air bubbles within the glass matrix, and base wear from surface contact. Victorian pressings also feature pronounced geometric motifs, such as diamond point or hobnail patterns.

A cobalt blue glass jug functions as an accent piece on a neutral sideboard or near a window where natural light enhances its colour. It can also serve as a stem vase for floral arrangements or remain as decorative tableware.

Wash antique glass by hand using tepid water and a gentle liquid soap with a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid dishwashers and exposure to rapid temperature changes to prevent thermal shock and cracking.
