Most
fine crystal contains lead
oxide. Although some manufacturers
claim up to 30% lead content,
24% is the optimum percentage
for color, weight and hardness,
while still ensuring clarity,
sparkle and brilliance.
24% Lead Crystal, with its exceptionally high perceived value, has been sought after and treasured for generations, and remains a status symbol even today.

Defects in Crystal
Defects in material and workmanship will
be corrected without charge. However, please
be aware that even in the finest crystal,
minor variations in clarity and color can
occur. Occasional air bubbles, chill marks
or flow lines are inevitable, especially
in molded or blown crystal products. In
order to obtain the optimum finish, extra
polishing may be necessary, which may cause
variations in size. These minor variations
in size, quality, color and clarity are
not considered defects.
Care of Crystal
Crystal is susceptible to minor surface scratches. Care should always be exercised in the handing of a beautiful piece of Crystal. Wash your crystal with mild soap and warm water. Dry with a dust free cloth.
