I just had a response from Helen MacDonald:
"This is one of mine called Swan Lake from some time in the 70's. There were not many made as they were expensive to engrave on 4 sides."
... "some time in the 70's" would fit the engraved '72.

Ray - may I assume to have (again) your permission to use your images on ScotlandsGlass ? >:D

Did Helen engrave them or just design them?

I have an engraved weight which is signed by Helen.  I was told that she engraved them.   A very talented lady!  :hiclp:
