Are these made of lead glass (or do they contain lead)? Lead is hazardous to one's health, and since these come from China, I am skeptical.

I would say they dont have any lead in them because they are as light as a feather and leaded glass is heavier. I have never had a problem with them at all.

I assume its BPA free since it's glass. Not sure about lead though. It's made in Italy.

You know?, I honestly don't know. Since they are NOT lead crystal, just plain, clear glass, I would venture to guess they are lead free but you could check with Libbey to be sure. They are awesome goblets though... I love them!

The previous answer describing tests and glazes is correct - for Corelle's *STONEWARE*, though. These plates (and almost all of Corelle, excluding the mugs) are not stoneware. They're made of a special type of glass, which should not contain or leach any lead at all. This is why I chose these, because I believe them to be safe.

As far as I know, lead is not in glass, usually it's in paint. When I buy ceramics from Mexico, they actually say "lead free" on the bottom. Glass is made from sand.

Manufacturers haven't used lead for decades in making glass. I'm sure these are lead free.

There was no name on them. Someone asked if they contain lead. I never even thought of that.If you find out please email me. Thanks

As stated in the description these glasses are made from 24% lead crystal. There is also a link to California Proposition 65 warning for lead exposure.

I don't think they are lead. Here is what Nakpunar says about their jars...the jars we sell have special BPA free lids and you can use them for foods. They can also be waterbath for the jams.Apr 22, 2014 by Nakpunar

The only information I found was on squidoo.com that said that all of their dinnerware meets the FDA Standards for lead and calcium(?) releases, so it's "perfectly safe". I assume that implies they are not 100% lead and cadmium free, but are minimal. Personally, I'm really happy with them. I ordered them in 4 different colors. Hope that hellps.

I don't know where it's made, but it's glass, not crystal, so I don't know why it would have lead in it.

Hi Sandy,In the older pieces made in theUS there is no lead, but the newer pieces are being made in China and do have small amounts of lead in them. I hope this helps.Bella

The are made in the US. They seem to be high quality solid brass, so I think no lead. I don't know how you can tell for sure without some testing. I don't know why they sell them in pairs, but I'm really happy with mine.

The blue swirl is in the glass itself. 50-ish dishwasher rides later, they are still as blue as ever. I don't know about the lead content - sorry!

I don't know if there is lead in it, but I doubt it because porcelain enamel is no longer made with lead. These are so pretty that I prefer them as decorative rather than actually using them to drink out of.

These aren't "crystal" coffee mugs. (Traditionally, crystal contains some lead to make it easier to cut.) Also, this product was made in the USA. If you wanted to be absolutely sure about the lead, I would contact Libbey.

I think the only glassware that contains lead would be some crystal. THese are very nice glasses, none have broken or chipped.
