FAQs

A rummer is a heavy, short-stemmed drinking glass that became popular in British taverns and homes during the 18th and 19th centuries, traditionally used for serving rum, beer, or wine.

Antique rummers were typically crafted from lead glass or flint glass, often hand-blown into moulds or free-blown with applied feet and polished pontil marks on the base.

Authentic pieces often exhibit characteristics such as tiny air bubbles within the metal of the glass, irregularities in thickness, wear scratches on the base, and a resonant ring when tapped.

These pieces can be displayed on open shelving, within a glazed cabinet, or utilised practically for serving drinks during dinner parties to add historical texture to modern table settings.

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