Frank:
In a 1907 global directory they show up only in Sydney, by 1933 UK directory they had a London Office at Bevis Marks. In 1963, UK Directory, St. Andrew St they were importers of German and Japanese pottery. Czech table and ornamental lead-crystal and soda-lime. French soda-lime table glass. In 1963 as a Pty., Ltd. still active in Sydney, but only lists what they import from the UK (Empire Porcelain) - they were in same street as in 1907 (Kent Street) but a different number.
So perhaps they started out in Australia or not in London then, I did not check other towns in the 1907
None of the above directories are in the Glass-Study yet.
Googling
They set up a pottery in Czechoslovakia in 1883 so were obviouls strongly connected there too, the pottery mark is no use but is here

For 800 plus pounds I can subscribe to a site with more data on them... perhaps I undercharge for the Glass-Study!
Sklounion:
£800??
I'd expect immorality membership for that much, not just life... ;D ;D

Frank:
That is an annual fee Marcus, sufficient for 40 years in the Glass-Study :ac1:
Frank:
Lazarus and Rosenfeld were clearly quite a big company also owning the Empire pottery. They feature in Revi's American Cut and Engraved Glass, anyone got a copy?
