FAQs

Bristol blue glass is a distinct type of deep cobalt blue glassware produced in Bristol, England, during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, often characterised by rich enamel or gilt decoration.

These pieces were typically mouth-blown using potash-lead glass formulations heavily saturated with cobalt oxide to achieve the signature dark blue colour, then finished with hand-cut facets and hand-applied gilding.

Authentic period pieces exhibit pontil scars on the base from hand-blowing, distinct hand-cut facets, wear consistent with age, and hand-lettered or gilded labels rather than modern stencilling.

They can be displayed on a sideboard, drinks trolley, or open shelving to introduce rich colour and historical texture into both traditional and contemporary spaces.

Clean them gently by hand using lukewarm water and mild soap, avoiding harsh abrasives that can damage the delicate historic gilding, and store them away from direct sunlight.
