Flemish Blue Perfume

Lead Glass

This deep blue color was typically used as an accent color for the trim or foot of other colored pieces. This is truly a very unique work for Carder.

Technical Note: Glass workers often refer to the glass as the “metal” and when one stated it was “Best Metal” they were referring to fine lead glass.
