glass
Lead glass is made with lead oxide PbO this makes it dense. It also has a higher refractive index than ordinary glass. It is sometimes called "lead crystal glass" and has been used to make cut glass ornaments and decanters. There is a lead poisoning risk from drinking wine that has been stored for long periods in lead crystal decanters.
No, however, newer stained glass utilized non-lead solder, and the lead (PbO, lead oxide) in leaded glass has been replaced more and more by the use of barium oxide, zinc oxide, or potassium oxide. While not banned, lead is used less often today, and the rare lead glass contains 24% PbO or near that amount. It is recommended that any glass suspected of containing PbO should be avoided with food or beverages.
No, lead is only harmful if it exists in a form than can be introduced into the body. Lead glass or crystal is bound in the glass structure so as to render it inert.
Glass is see through and is better quality than plastic. Plastic is not as see through as glass anyway.

Lead can leach out of glass when the glassware has been treated or decorated with lead-based substances. However, most glass water pitchers do not contain lead and are safe for use with liquids. It is important to check the packaging or product information to ensure that the glass pitcher is lead-free.
