What date would you ascribe to this ee bath? Lead glass with a polsed pontil mark. The top has been cut and well-finished.

That is exquisite.

I'm not an expert but my impression is early 19th century (1810s-1840s).

Thanks Julie. It has been well made and is a quality piece in my view. I'd agree with your dating.
