The Timeless Charm of Milk Glass

Steeped in history, milk glass has been enchanting collectors and enthusiasts for centuries. Its opalescent sheen and delicate translucence add an ethereal touch to any setting, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. Originating in Venice during the 16th century, milk glass gained widespread popularity in the 19th century when it became synonymous with elegance and refinement.
