Thanks for your input, Paul. Actually, the first "two" pictures are the same picture I inadvertently uploaded twice. It was taken by my son as part of a high school photography project (he is now in college majoring in a scientific photography). I don't know why the seller thought the crystal was Baccarat, other than that she obtained it from someone who represented it to her (as I recall, it was a woman with whom I corresponded). The crystal was in Montevideo, Uruguay when it was up for sale, and I have gone back to my records to find the ebay identity of the seller, who is in the U.S.A. I might contact her again to see if she recalls the merchandise. At the time I bought the waters and wines, she also had matching cordials and decanter for sale, which I declined. However, as I recall, the decanter was shaped very much like the Rabelais pattern decanter. As for wear on the feet, there appears to be some, but very little, considering the alleged age. There are no maker's marks whatsoever anywhere on this crystal. This leads me to believe that either I have antique Baccarat, or it is another brand crystal. Perhaps I am naïve, but I would think that Baccarat catalogued every pattern it made, and that there must be a source to determine this issue. Regardless, I like the crystal very much, whatever it is, but I am curious enough to keep digging.
