Hi Can anyone help me I recently bought a milk glass sugar with cover in a grape vine pattern . the lozenges on the piece suggest it was made by Edward Webb in  Dec 1867. I have been unable to find out anything about this glass maker or this particular piece can anyone help ?

We really need pictures and dimensions to help. A side shot, a base shot and one of the lozenge just for a start. The registration date is not when something was made, just when the design was registered.

This link will help you post pictures
