Milk Glass (often spelled Milkglass), also known as Opaque Glass or Opal Glass, is a popular type of collectible glass, most commonly white in color, usually either pressed or blown, that shows a strong degree of opacity, often completely opaque. This type of glass can also show various degrees of translucency, permitting some light to shine through when held up to a strong light source. Some examples of white milk glass might be described as “dead white”, showing absolute opaqueness with no trace at all of translucency.
