What is the diffrence between Glass, Crystal and Lead Crystal?

This is just a quick video to explain the diffrences between glass, crystal and lead crystal. i also explain in very simple terms what lead crystal is.

Hi, I love cooking, eating and I enjoy teaching others about things in the kitchen so I decided to start this project. I have decided to focus on making product Review/Overview videos and the odd advise video when I just can't help myself.

So that's that. I went to Utube to find that difference between lead crystal and glass and you gave it to me.

Thanks just got a crystal whiskey glass set and the sound of clinking the glasses is unbelievably musical

The ringing in lead crystal is much easier to hear in glasses with a stem, like a champagne flute.

Have you noticed any differences on the way each glass ages? Meaning; do they all get that "blurry" smudged look(for lack of a better word), especially around the opening?

Thanks!

There are two kinds of crystal. 1) Lead Oxide and 2) Titanium Oxide. With lead oxide crystal, it is safe to drink out of as long as you aren’t drinking something that has been sitting there for a long time. It’s perfectly fine otherwise.

Could you do a video on superfest glass from the GDR
It’s extremely strong and not toxic

[margarettickle]

Please comment on if depression glass is lead crystal which is bad to eat or drink out of it.

In the stores they market the Lead free like it’s supposed to be the best version.

Obviously the price is higher on the lead ones

How do they produce that gorgeous periwinkle blue tint in the crystal? Also, is it possible to use a different metal than lead?

[Carlo-jz]

Sound is mostly defined by shape and not material, practically anything can sound good if the shape is right.

So I think I've got the hang of identifying crystal but I still have no idea what I am looking at since all the crystal I've seen to this day has no markings

[intexclouds]

Last part was funny....to see you try repeatedly to bring out that ringing effect....I think a bigger glass would have helped you demonstrate that. Thank you for the video.

Is that not neurotoxic ? Lead mercury everywhere

[gew]

Thank you for your extensively informative video ❤

My favorite lead crystal glass is the Dorset cordial mini goblet shot glasses from William Sonoma I have 2 lead crystal shot glasses that tiny crystal shot glass goblet and a whisky lead crystal glass just cuz I want something nice for my alcohol when I drink it cuz why not lol 😂

Does that mean that we drink lead in our drinks over time?
