FAQs

A mixed twist wine glass features an 18th-century stem incorporating both air-twist and opaque white twist threads within the glass rod.

These pieces were typically crafted from lead glass using hand-blown techniques, with the complex stems formed by manipulating threads of molten glass before sealing.

Authentic examples often display a rough pontil mark on the underside of the foot, wear consistent with age, and small trapped air bubbles within the lead glass.

Antique stemware can be displayed within glass-fronted cabinets or styled on open shelving to add historical texture and refined detail to a room.

Antique glass should be washed by hand in warm water using mild detergent, avoiding harsh scrubbing and sudden temperature changes to protect the fragile structure.
