Fascinating. Thank you for sharing your wide knowledge of the subject of Georgian glass.

@GunOwnerDan 6 лет назад

Thanks for the information, over the last few years I've been able to find some very old glassware and decanters dating back to the 1700's for very little money.I've found most of them at yard sales, antique shops, and antique shows. Often the sellers know little or nothing about them, and when I do research I find out how old they are. Now I'm collecting them and I can get enough!

Hi GunOwnerDan, Thank you for taking time to comment, most Georgian glass you find comes in cheap because people just dont know what it is, and to be honest we share a love in the glass mate. Thanks.

Hello, I've stumbled across your channel after attempting to research a tumbler / beaker I've recently acquired at a flea market here in the U.S. I believe the piece to be Georgian, standing just under 5 inches in height and a bit under 3 inches in circumference at the base, with a flaring, lipped rim close to 4 inches in diameter. The concave pontil is rough and sharp, unground and has no T shape. There are multiple bubbles in the glass and it, in my opinion, appears to be rather crude in it's craftsmanship. The engraving depicts a basket with five, simplistic, round, flowers jutting out, accompanied by elongated leaves and tendrils. There are also uneven, finger width panels, with rounded tops, around the lower portion of the glass up to the middle portion, which are on the glass' interior. The glass base is thicker on one side than the other and there is a unintentional dip in the rim. The glass is not clear, but instead a gray, green tone. Could you tell me please if I am correct in assuming that this piece is Georgian? Perhaps you could tell me which time period and what it's use may have been, whether for beer or water, etc. I would also be curious to know what the engraved image may represent. I assume it was wheel engraved, but the leaves for example, almost appear to be sand blasted, although I do detect some vertical movement in the engraving which may lend to the wheel. I see no stippling. When found, it was nestled in a wooden box, fitted into styrofoam which was covered in old, floral patterned, cloth. The box is embellished with aged, decorative, upholstery tacks. It's clear that the previous owner, or someone, had gone to great lengths to preserve the integrity of the glass, with the addition of the stryofoam fitting. I would like to assume it had been passed down through a family for centuries and generations. When I asked the flea market vendor where they had acquired it, they said that they couldn't remember. I happily paid him his $10 asking price. Lastly, am I referring to it correctly as a tumbler, or should it be called a beaker or something else? Many thanks for any information you could provide.

Hi Can you give me advice , I have just found a glass goblet , it is very crude , no marks and very thick heavy glass . I found it near a water well in south moravia in the Czech Republic .

Hi, I may purchase a mixed colour opaque air twist stem glass. It has a smooth pontil mark, I'm just wondering how long they made this glass for, and do you think it's a repro. Even so it's a beautiful glass

@julie-walsh 2 года назад

Exeellent Video! Thank You! I want to mention, If you put in links to the books on Amazon in your description you will get money from them and it's a great service for your patrons!

I have my parents drinking water glasses, could have been my Grandmothers , a strange amber coloured glass. Are they worth keeping ? Why are they amber coloured , I have never seen the colour before anywhere. I only have 3 glasses but remember them as part of a water set including a jug. Glasses barrel shape

Hello, I have recently acquired four small dram glasses, grey in colour, and all but one has a T pontil mark. No styrations, but tiny air bubbles. Is there anyone you would recommend to appraise them? Thanks for the video, very valuable information.

@AntiquesArena 6 лет назад

Hi SK, i can not recommend anyone, but you can post the pics on my facebook group or page antiquesarena and will will have a look for you and also have members who can help

I’d like you to take a look at my bowl. I thought it was ABP although several on the ABP Facebook page think it may be pre ABP and Georgian

@davidlourenco4662 3 года назад

@AntiquesArena 3 года назад

Hi there! I’ve just messaged you on Facebook about some glasses I’ve recently come across. Any help would be really appreciated!

@rasethtv6864 5 лет назад

I've been to my fare share of antiques fairs and car boot sales in my time, son. Let me tell you that the quality has nothing to do with colour, clarity, cut and carrot of the glass as you so swear. I'm not sure where you got this book from, but it is highly erroneous. When I drink my whisky it's only ever in a Stamford Classic glass and never a Worcestershire Decent as I took that you proposed. I look forward to your reply, comrade.
