FAQs

An 18th-century Calvados bottle is a hand-blown glass vessel crafted in France for storing and transporting apple brandy. These bottles typically exhibit dark green or olive glass to protect the spirits from light exposure.

During this period, bottles were individually hand-blown using free-blowing techniques or dip moulds. Dark green glass was created using unrefined materials containing iron oxide, resulting in natural colour variations, applied string rims, and pontil scars on the base.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical hand-blown shapes, seed bubbles within the glass, deep kick-up bases, and evidence of a snapped pontil rod mark. Applied glass string rims beneath the lip and natural surface oxidation or patina also indicate age.

Antique glass bottles work well when displayed on a sideboard top, bookshelf, or deep window sill where natural light highlights the glass texture. Grouping items of varying heights and green tones creates a cohesive decorative arrangement.

Clean gently using tepid water and mild detergent without soaking the piece for extended periods. Avoid abrasive scrubbers, hot water, or harsh chemicals that could damage original glass patination or delicate surface features.
