Background of opaline glass:
Opaline is a decorative style of glass made in France from 1800-1890.
All opaline glass is hand blown and has a rough or polished pontil on the bottom.
There are no seams and no machine engraving.
Opaline reached its peak of popularity during the reign of Napoleon III circa 1840-1850. Opaline glass is defined as semi-crystal.
The glass is slightly translucent. The primary influences on this style of glass were 16th century Venetian milk glass and English white glass produced in 18th-century Bristol. The popularity of opaline glass began during the reign of Napoleon. Cities involved in the production included Le Creusot, Baccarat, Saint-Louis, and Reunion.
