Guess who forgot the camera again? But luckily Dad's was there and handy so we used that to take some shots of Mum's basket - see below...

Course you can Margi, thank you  :-* Personally I don't like it but my Mum does, and as it's her basket, that's OK. :)

 :hiclp:  Oooooooooh Anne - I mean I like mine - but I like yours better with the Blue.  It just gives that *extra* punch to it.

Course you can Margi, thank you :kissy: Personally I don't like it but my Mum does, and as it's her basket, that's OK. :)

 :o  I think it is gorgeous - you tell your Mom she has good taste !!

...and I know Anne that you like other Glass things too. :kissy:   Gosh, we can't all be alike -- that would be no fun

Just updating an old thread with new info. These are/were made in China, I recently came across one with a label that reads "Crystal Brand, Made in China".

Wow, thank you very much for updating this thread with the label evidence.  11 years - is that a GMB record?

Interesting in that the quality seems to be quite good, even 11 years ago, with the polished bases.  The design is ok as well with that extra trailed effect and pulls.  (Not a basket fan though but even so).
