ah yes, see what you mean  -  in fact I hadn't see most of yesterday's posts - I was so engrossed in my own good fortune.      I like the quality of your photograph, makes the goblet look especially good with that lighting, and the black background.   It's not easy producing good results with clear glass, and you've done well.       It's essential to be ecstatic about something, although think I've gone off mine a little - they are a tad smallish, and don't quite have the same appeal as your piece, plus I try now to stick to British, and even that's coming out of my ears. ;D        If you say the likelihood is Bohemian (for yours and mine) then I wouldn't argue with you.

you will see that the height of 4.1/4" was given in my first post.       Don't think that I'd sell them, but will send you an off-board email :)

Ask me if you need a matching set of leaf dishes.

No - they tend to disintegrate in the dish washer. I figure these are from Meisenthal circa 1880.

Ivo, thank you  :) but  I would have no idea what to do with them though  :-[ My Dartington daisy dishes are dishwashable and I'd need to be able to use them.
