This intricate, detailed technique is defined as glass which has been decorated by hand using rotating wheels. Cut glass craftspeople carve fine patterns into a smooth glass surface using highly specialised stone or metal wheels.

The history of Antique cut glass patterns is long and prestigious. Although glass cutting is still practiced now, the demand for new cut glass is much lower than during some periods of history, primarily the Brilliant period. However, antique cut glass is still highly valued and some pieces can fetch a great price.

The clarity of this piece of genuine cut glass is second to none and cannot be matched by imitation cut glass. The surface is highly polished, and the majority of cut lines are relatively deep (i.e. more than surface scratches) and sparkle with a diamond quality.

Holding this stunning bowl up to a light or a window creates a prism-like effect – another ID feature of Antique quality crystal.
