FAQs

Mid-18th-century serving bottles are characterised by free-blown or mould-blown lead glass construction, often featuring applied glass rings on the neck and bulbous bodies designed for holding wine or spirits at the dining table.

These vessels were typically crafted from potash-lime or lead glass using traditional glassblowing techniques, often resulting in characteristic surface imperfections such as air bubbles and pontil marks on the base.

Authenticity is determined by examining the pontil scar on the base, the weight and thickness of the metal, wear scratches appropriate to age, and hand-formed traits such as asymmetrical necks and tool marks.

Display the bottle as a standalone sculptural object on an open shelf, mantelpiece, or sideboard, or use it to hold a single stem flower to blend historic craftsmanship with modern minimalism.

Clean antique glass gently using lukewarm water and mild dish soap with a soft sponge, avoiding harsh chemicals, extreme temperature changes, and abrasive brushes to protect the fragile historic surface.
