Milk Glass is a term used by art glass-makers for opaque white glass. The German term is milch–glass, the Italian term is lattimo (from latte, milk) and the French term is blanc-de-lait (milk white) or verre-de-lait. It looks like white porcelain. It was first made in Venice in the 14th or 15th century, and later in just about every country that made glass. The opaque white color is usually made with tin oxide. During the 17th and 18th centuries it was very popular, and during that period it was often decorated with enamel painting.

In the late 15th century a В«milkyВ» opaque white glass, known as lattimo, was developed by the Venetians. It resembled the highly coveted porcelain imported from China and became popular during the 17th and 18th centuries. The technique had spread to Bohemia by the 18th century, where it was known as Milchglas. Bohemian glassmakers also produced innovative colored art glass, most notably a deep, strong blue glass created by adding cobalt oxide to the glass mix. As with Milchglas, this provided a perfect foil for colored enamels.
