    Theres a LOT of Kings Crown glass out there,I mean a LOT ! Is that scotch bottle full ? Your little pitcher looks like its suffering from "sick glass" syndrome. Sometimes you can get rid of it,often its impossible.

    Often glassware will get a white cloudy build up in it for many reasons,liquid evaporated,lime build up,etc,and its difficult to get out wich reduces the value considerably. Google "sick glass" and they can explain it better than I. Most antiquers leave it on the shelf.

    If you're planning on throwing some vinegar or flowers in it, it's fine, but collectors give "sick glass" a pass for the most part. I have a few bits here, but only because they were too cheap to pass up and older than dirt. At least for American glass anyway. To a Brit it's probably last week.

    Hi,
    I have a slight repair job on sick glass. If it can not be cleaned then there are several ways to make it more presentable. I have several decanters that were real bad sick glass problem. I pour some heavy mineral oil into the decanter and swirl it around, then turn it upside until it stops dripping. Then I replace the top. The oil coats the glass and the sickness disappears. One has had the mineral oil in it for 10 years. I just wash the outside. If you wash the inside you have to recoat it. For an open type like a vase. I use petroleum jelly. Put some on a clean cloth or paper towel. Wipe it lightly all over the inside. Since it has an open top it will get dusty and need to be washed and redone. I use the vase for flowers and since it is water proof it works nicely. My one decanter is almost 200 years old now and it looks brand new. I got it every cheap due to the glass sickness.
