Fun Facts!!
Crystal like this produces a clear, resonant “ping” when gently tapped. A classic test collectors use to distinguish genuine crystal from regular glass.
True lead crystal is softer than regular glass, allowing artisans to create intricate cut patterns with dazzling clarity. Which is why fine crystal has been prized in decorative arts and tabletop elegance for centuries.

As time passes, pieces like this become increasingly special, making it an excellent choice for collectors or anyone seeking timeless, investment-worthy décor.
