What's the oldest you've ever cleaned

I cleaned some today and the lady said they were at least 350 years old!!!

I was very happy when job was finished without cracking any  ;D

Don't know about oldest but these are the dirtiest.

They came up pretty good.

they had not been cleaned for about 30 years since they moved in.
The neighbour paid for them to be cleaned for a really old couple when I did his. He was sick of the sight of them.
the whole house was like that.
