FAQs

Bristol blue glass is a distinct deep cobalt blue glassware traditionally manufactured in Bristol, England, during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, particularly thriving throughout the Georgian era.

These pieces were crafted from lead glass or potash glass infused with cobalt oxide to achieve the deep blue colour, typically hand-blown into moulds or free-blown and finished with hand-ground stoppers.

Authentic pieces often exhibit pontil marks on the base, slight asymmetries from hand-crafting, hand-ground stoppers tailored specifically to the neck, and deep saturation of colour consistent with period glass formulations.

Position it on a sideboard top or within a glass-fronted cabinet to catch the light, allowing the intense blue hue to act as a vibrant focal point against neutral backdrops.

Clean gently by hand using lukewarm water and mild detergent, avoiding harsh abrasives or sudden temperature changes, and store without the stopper tightly wedged to prevent sticking.
