This is because crystals are not only more refined-looking than glass but also give off a vibe of being royal. Crystal and glass are made of different materials. Crystal crockery gives a different shine altogether due to the intricate cuts and designs on it. Apart from setting the dining table, crystal glasses are perfect for gifting purposes as well. An engraved crystal glass for a beloved with notations of love and care has been a sought-after gift for decades. The lead content in the crystal glass leads to more refraction and thus the glass seems to emit an ethereal glow. When searching for crystal glasses, it sometimes gets difficult to set them apart from plain glasses. Take a look at the following points to know the most common differences:

The experience gets to a whole new level when crystal glasses are clinked together. Whilst purchasing, clink two glasses together and keep your ears open for an enduring sound. Glass will make a clunking noise, and crystals will reverberate with a fine ringing sound. 2. Whilst testing the glassware, run a wet finger around the rim of the glass in a circular motion slowly. If the product is made of crystal, you can hear a faint sound emanating from it. 3. Inspecting the sharpness or the smoothness of the product minutely will let you know if the glassware is made of crystal. The smoother it sees, the more likely it is to be of crystal. The fine cuts are perfect for engraved crystal glass. Moreover, crystals also have a narrowerrim than those of plain glass.

As the lead in the crystal causes more refraction, the light will tell you if it's plain glass or crystal. Crystal refraction will show you divides of light on the spectrum almost like a Prisma. 5. Crystal is heavier in weight in comparison to glass. When you buy glassware, weigh the two types to know the difference. A tumbler of the same size will seem to be heavier in crystal whilst the glass tumbler will be lighter in weight. Crystal glasses set a fine aura at the dining table. A large variety of crystal glassware can indeed leave you spoiled for choices.
