Hello everyone!

I have a small crystal cut bowl with no marks at the base, but with what would appear to be an acid etched lion rampant on the side of the foot.

I tried searching for lion rampant marks on crystal online and in glass guides but could not find any clues.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Adam

Very similar from the picks to Stuart or Waterford Jasper Conran, maybe made for a company promotion?, i saw 6 Stuart boxed vases today made for some exhibition in the 80's. similar placed Logo, not a lion though.

Adam — if it is Jasper Conran for Stuart / Waterford then the logo is more likely to have been sandblasted than acid etched.   Sandblasting tends to be rougher — you can use it as a nail file — while acid etched is smooth.

The glass bowl and pattern looks like either Stuart Aura, Edinburgh crystal eclipse or a new one i have seen produced for House of Fraser, i think it was LSA Malika.  The picture Is too blurred to tell, the key is the bottom link at the base there all slightly different.
