Historical Casting & Provenance

The baluster curve requires precise blow-pipe rotation to distribute glass thickness evenly through the waist and foot.

Hand-finished in Boston by skilled glassworkers. Subtle variations in bubble distribution, wall thickness, and pontil markings testify to authentic artisan execution.

Glass Composition & Joint Precision

Rich amber crown glass (4.0mm wall thickness, 12mm solid base). Flat-top ground glass stopper.

Glassware Material: Kiln-annealed soda-lime silica, mineral metal-oxide tinting. Heavy wall density: 3.5mm – 4.2mm.

Studio Care & Maintenance

Rinse with lukewarm water and dry immediately with cotton tea towel.

Studio Advice: To prevent ground-glass stopper binding over extended storage, avoid pressing the stopper forcibly when wet. Store in ambient dry room temperatures.
