What is French opaline glass?
1 Answer
French opaline glass was made in France between 1810 and 1890 and has a white finish that resembles milk glass. The first colors made were turquoise, yellow and pink, but as the period progressed they made brighter colors in an effort to imitate Bohemian glass.
