What is Irish glassware called?

Irish glassware isn't usually called by a special term. However, Irish glassmakers did employ materials that differed from those used by glassblowers on the European continent during the 18th century. They added calcined flints and pebbles to the molten glass and utilized lead oxide as a binding agent. As a result, the glass they produced could better reflect light once it was cut. This type of glass came to be known as lead glass or crystal. Find a wide range of Irish glassware on 1stDibs.
