The long Victorian period (1838-1901) spanned over an immensely prolific time in the history of art and design. It covers such great fashions as Gothic Revival, the Pre-Raphaelites, Aesthetic Movement, Expressionism, Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau. That was quite unlike any other period.
Facts of Lavish Tip — glass is a pretty tough material. Wash old glassware normally in a warm soapy water. Watch out for gilding and enamelling, do not scrub hard.
