Our Product Story
Mercury, or silvered glass, is glass that has a silvery appearance. Mercury glass actually contains no mercury or silver.
Mercury glass was first created in Germany in the early 1800s. It was used as a more inexpensive material for candlesticks, vases, goblets, and other objects. Silvered glass quickly gained popularity in France, England, Bohemia, and the United States.
