You can definitely make glass sing, I’ve done it many times.
Exactly. I have done that with regular glass especially newer glass.
Probably one of the best & most informative videos I’ve seen in a *long* time. The video quality shouldn’t be underestimated, but I really appreciate how much this video was able to cover in a nicely compacted amount of time.
And oh no! 😅 14:11 Diamond cutter ring, hand cutting crystal tumblers.
I heard Saint Louis starting limiting the lead to 24% maximum, and also applying some kind of special coating to prevent any lead to seep out after that 90’s FDA letter.
So secondhand & post 90’s (if you can tell) crystal if you wanna booze it up or whatever. Who knew? You’d think they would’ve checked sooner for that kind of stuff and that it needed a warning/disclaimer label all that time before. I don’t think this is widely known.
Thank you very much for your comment. Hope the film was able to help you. Kind regards. Walter
On the Gurasu Crystal website they said that If you pour a 50/50 solution of water and white vinegar into the glasses and let it soak for 24 hours any lead on the interior surface will leach into the acidic solution. Clean the glass after pouring out the solution. It's o.k. to store liquids in crystal for the length of a meal but liquids should not be stored in the crystal for longer than that.
Very helpful information. Thank you
I got quite alot out of this very thorough video. Thanks there, mate.

Wow, lead glass comes at a high price!
Thank you for your comment. Lead glass is beautiful but yes comes at a price
Hi Walter, thank you SO much for your videos, I absolutely love them! I've just started selling antiques and collectables on eBay and your videos have been SO helpful, I don't know what I'd do without them!! In a few of your videos you mention an online group you have where you can post items and ask for people's advice on what they are. Do you have a link for this? Thank you!
hi, thank you very much for your kind comment, the group i use when i need help is talking antiques on facebook, you can get some real rude people on there but overall the experience is good and you get answers. good luck with your reselling, stick to it, it is hard but so worth it.
@@AntiquesArena Thank you so much!
@@tillytigger thank you too for your support
What is the "load spa" (19:20) brand? Thank you
Nicely done. Never put your lead Crystal in the dishwasher, stick to this guidance.
Thank you very much for your comment. So wish I had mentioned that lol 😂
@@AntiquesArena I once gave a friend a huge John Walsh Walsh Pompeian yellow vase as a wedding present. His wife put it in the dishwasher and Bang, goodbye beautiful vase.
That is so sad and probably happens daily
I will add the info in to my blog post as I think it is important. It just didn’t come to me when I made the film
Looks like I’m buying a glass tumblr instead of a crystal for my whiskey. I’m not paying 10x the price to get lead in my body.
You quite literally consume more lead on a daily basis than any crystal decanter or drinking glass will put in you 😂 IF any at all. Crystal is perfectly within safe limits.
Ooh! Yes! Refraction! Plus clarity plus weight plus finish plus sound when flicked with my finger..

I was looking for caring for chipped crystal pieces and you turned up.
I volunteer at an op shop and I’ve pulled out a lot of crystal from glass. Not many people want to pay for crystal when it’s unsigned. Most of the stuff is wedding presents and from 1960s onwards. The only signed piece I know is a royal Doulton wine glass there. Only one.
I do check.
Most of its Czech etc. Some Waterford but not much.
Thank you for your comment and sub. I love Crystal I bet you see tones of it. I find the same problem I only buy signed now tbh
Thank you a very good informative video, today I bought a victorian lead crystal claret jug with stopper to put drink in it is it safe to do this watching your video I'm still unsure can you tell me please yes or no thank you from Howard. 🤔🙏🍷
Hi Howard. Thank you for your comment. I have always kept drink in decanters. However it is recommended that you serve out of a Crystal decanter and. It store in one
Can I drink wine out of crystal glass if contains lead?
Hi is there such a thing as pressed or molded crystal? What are the seams on the bowl or vase is that part of the design? If crystal isn’t signed does that cheapen then value? Thank you!
New sub
Hi. Yes you can get Crystal that has been pressed and moulded. As long as it’s 24 % lead it’s Crystal. And the lines are where it was moulded. Cut Crystal doesn’t have limes or seams but the likes of polish pressed Crystal do.
How can I send a picture where you can see if it Crystal
アンティークは100年以上
だとすると素材はクリスタルではない可能性あり
加里ガラス、ソーダガラスかも🙆🙋🙌
Great explanation! I wonder if you stored your 50 year old scotch in a decanter for 20 years, if you could taste the difference. Also, can you make the same kind of stopper that glass as in crystal. That part that is abrasive, but still seals it. Thanks for the tip about landfills! Oh yeah, does crystal, or glass “flow” over time.?
Know this will be of interest to you with reference to a previous video

Then its no purpose of having lead crystal only for decor
My walmart wine glasses sing when you rub the rim. Pretty sure they are not crystal.
Cutting your partner in half for washing your favourite crystal tumbler with a ring on is totally justified. 👍
as a glassblower this video is NOT 100% accurate.
Thank you for your comment. Which part isn’t right ?
All glass sings when you rub the rim and you can not tell if it’s crystal by flicking the glass either. Great video super informative.
Whether or not the glass sings, depends more on the thickness and shape of the glass, not what type of glass the cup is made out of.
@@GammaGlass while I agree with you there is a distinct difference in the sound and type of ring between glass and Crystal that is unmistakable and a piece with a handle will not ring or if it does it’s very minor
You CAN NOT tell if glass is crystal by the ring! And I never said anything about handles so idk where you got that from but okay…
