OPTIC CRYSTAL - THE ULTIMATE CLARITY AND BRILLIANCE
Optic crystal is 100% lead free. The absence of lead makes optic crystal extremely hard. Because of its hardness we can polish crystal to flawlessly smooth surfaces as well as cut and bevel it with brilliant edges. Optic crystal is produced in sheets of molten material up to three inches thick and before it hardens, crystal is subjected to extreme pressure to remove any air bubbles, inclusions or flaws. Optic crystal is polished, cut and beveled by hand w/ ultimate skill and precision. "Handcut crystal" means the item is held against a spinning stone to cut the design. It is truly artistic workmanship at its best, which requires decades of experience! Crystal without lead is not any less valuable than full lead crystal particularly when it is finely designed. In fact, clear uncut crystal has to be particularly fine quality because the flaws can not be hidden by the cuts.
-I try to be as accurate as possible in my descriptions and photos. These items are vintage and may show some signs of wear or slight damage. I feel like this is part of what makes them charming as they hold stories from years of being loved and utilized and incorporated into the lives of others as part of their experience. I do my best to locate and indicate any flaw in an item.
