How can I tell if Georgian glass is real?
1 Answer
Real Georgian glass was made during what is known as the Georgian period in the 17th and 18th centuries. The glass was made in three pieces: the base, stem and bowl. The process created several marks, which can help authenticate a piece of Georgian glass, including a pontil mark (found on the base) and vertical lines or marks around the bowl. Collectors should work with an appraiser to confirm the authenticity of Georgian glass. Find a selection of expertly vetted Georgian glass on 1stDibs.
