Impurity glassware is characterized by patterns (stripes appearing on the surface of the glass body), bubbles (small voids formed by wrapping air in the glass body), and sand (white granular silica sand embedded in the glass body without melting). These three conditions indicate that the glass material is impure and it is not recommended to purchase.

2. The thickness should be consistent

The distribution of glass materials in each part should be uniform, and the glass exposed container can be observed under light. If the light perception is consistent and integrated in all parts, it indicates that the thickness is consistent. Also, it should be noted that the thickness of glass tea sets can be thinner, while the thickness of glass wine sets can be thicker
