Dating Old Glass

Very interesting

[@KAR-aandle]

Brilliantly knitted together, with evidence both narrated & visual! Tea mixing bowls next then … going to see if you have more on your site … Thanks!

[@lovedecanters7891]

I'm afraid my site only has part of my collection on it. I am actively working on the next version at the moment.

[@gilchristantiques7464]

@KAR-aandle There's not a lot written on the subject.....However a recent book called "The story of British Tea chests and Caddies" dos have an entire chapter on glass for tea ...and explains that they are in fact "Sugar Basons"

@ I was looking, £40. I’m seriously considering.

thanks again Kevin for the information on that Decanter i asked you about yesterday the stopper fit perfect no wobble great seal but it is wrong for it even though i saw a few more online like it with the same type stopper mine is polished while the neck of the Decanter is worn and grey looking

[@gilchristantiques7464]

Fantastic video as always .....the bowl is however not a "tea mixing bowl " but actually a sugar bowl .....Its a common mistake that has been compounded over the years ! I have contemporary references to show this .....Love your channel....pleasure to watch

@@gilchristantiques7464 I’m going to have to dig into this subject…… I feel a video coming on.

Thank you Kevin.
Some good information here and a better ratio of looking at glass vs looking at references on the computer.

[@lovedecanters7891]

@@PeteLavalette it’s a difficult balance because my objective is to show people how to figure things out themselves.
