My understanding is that there is lead crystal which is manufactured with
lead and then there is crystal manufactured without it.  I think the
terminology has become less precise over the years so it might be wise to
check.

I've always understood lead is in all crystal glassware, quantity dependant
on manufacturer.

I brewed a batch in a crystal jug years ago and it turned tea coloured in a
very short time.  I assumed electrolysis of the silver interacted with the
lead in the crystal?  Was always going to repeat the exercise to satisfy
myself one way or tuther, but never have.

I DO know that storing or making colloidal silver in lead crystal is not
advised. L

It depends whether or not lead was used in manufacturing.

does anyone know if it's safe to drink out of crystal glass every day?
Thanks, Jess
