Here is a change of color on a rare bottle from Georgetown. It goes to show you how applying lacquer to bottles creates an illusion of the true color of the glass. Before and after tumbling photos of a GW Glasscock
That’s like night and day difference. Hope you didn’t pay to much. I bought one off a online that had been dipped and I did overpay. I didn’t notice til I tumbled and was mad as can be. Would have never known if I wouldn’t have thrown in the tumblerHere is a change of color on a rare bottle from Georgetown.

This was actually for someone else. There are only four of these known and for awhile we thought there were two blues and two aqua greens. After tumbling the greens we realized they are all ice blue.That’s like night and day difference. Hope you didn’t pay to much. I bought one off a online that had been dipped and I did overpay.

I did remove the lacquer before tumbling. I’ve found that if you don’t do that the tumbling can look inconsistent in spots.If sprayed with Clear a dip in Lacquer thinner or Acetone would probably remove it. might be better to remove before tumbling? LEON.
