Welcome to the page that I wish I had when I started collecting glass. The Colour Guide.
Identifying glass can be extremely tricky but one of the best ways is by looking at the colour. Factories only produced pieces in specific colours so matching the colour is a good starting place to build from.
This page is a bank of colour snap shots from different factories, and countries, for you to use.
Remember the page is always being updated so check back and see if the colour you are searching for appears here.
