Victorian art glass encompasses innovative decorative glassware produced during the reign of Queen Victoria, particularly from the mid-to-late 19th century, characterised by experimental techniques, vibrant colours and ornate forms.

These items were typically crafted using lead glass or soda-lime glass, often incorporating layered colour techniques such as cased glass, acid-etching, thermal manipulation and hand-crimping while the material was malleable.

Authentic pieces often exhibit pontil marks on the base, heavy weight due to lead content, hand-finished inconsistencies, and sometimes factory signatures or registration marks etched into the glass.

These decorative objects work well displayed on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or coffee table, adding a focal point of colour and texture when paired with minimalist or neutral surroundings.

Antique glass should be washed by hand in lukewarm water with mild detergent, avoiding harsh abrasives or sudden temperature changes that could cause thermal shock and cracking.
