With good reason, the English pride themselves on superior quality and quiet elegance. Victorian English art glass, whether a piece of Webb's cameo glass, a piece by Stevens and Williams or by Waterford, has a mystique all of its own. I first fell in love with art glass when I saw an antique Victorian amethyst glass ruffled dish with light green handle. The play of light gave it an aura so magical, that I was enchanted forever. Nothing modern can reproduce or compare with the sheer soft beauty of antique glass.

There: to observe and contemplate forever, recharging your wonderment over and above its direct aesthetic appeal.  Perhaps it's this very play of light that makes antique English Art glass so appealing. Nature has been mobilized to interact with the gentle result of Man's endeavors, making each piece come alive and add to your pleasure in your own home, over 100 years later.
