Bernard C:
Ivo — the "discussion" was Frank giving me a bollocking for using "PV" instead of Percival Vickers.   I was disappearing down my own abbreviations!

I very much doubt that your "PV" has anything to do with Percival Vickers.   Their glass was certainly exported to France, indeed items from their 1893 25-page catalogue Patterns of Moulded, Cut and Engraved Goods, especially designed for the Electro-plate Trade, turn up now and again in the most fabulous French silver-plated mounts.   This glass is identical to the British version, with registration numbers or lozenges.

Dori — June 26 1867 translates to "III" in the handle, T immediately below, then, clockwise, 26, 8, and M.
