Knowing How to Determine the Quality of Waterford Crystal. Is a cord or line in crystal a flaw? A line or cord is not considered a flaw. This almost invisible difference in the density of the crystal occurs during the fusing of molten crystal. Although visible when it reflects light, the cord disappears when a goblet or vase is filled with water.
Does a seed or bubble in crystal constitute a flaw? Tiny bubbles the size of a pinpoint sometimes form in the fusing or melting process and do not affect the quality of the piece. Such slight variations are natural results of handcrafting. How to Identify Waterford Crystal. To identify Waterford crystal, hold the item up the light and use a magnifying glass to locate an acid stamp that says Waterford. Alternatively, if the item was made after 2000, look for an acid stamp in the shape of a seahorse. You can also look for a gold sticker featuring Waterford's green seahorse emblem. Caring for Your Waterford Crystal The best solution is always washing by hand, avoid using scouring pads or abrasive detergents. Do not use an automatic dishwasher as this could cause your crystal to lose its brilliance. Rinse well with warm water and air dry.
