Georgian Glass

This week we are highlighting Georgian glass .

Georgian glass, crafted during the reigns of the “Three George’s”, Kings of England from 1714 to 1820, holds a distinguished place in the history of glassmaking. Renowned for its elegance and craftsmanship, Georgian glass embodies the refinement of the era with its perfect proportions, intricate cut patterns, and quality of the body, achieved by adding lead. Skilled artisans of the time like George Ravenscroft revolutionised glass production, introducing lead oxide to create a glass of exceptional brilliance. Georgian glassware ranges from ornate goblets to intricately cut decanters, each piece a testament to the period’s aesthetic sensibility and technical innovation. Today, Georgian glass remains highly prized by collectors and enthusiasts for its timeless beauty and historical significance.
