hi Nigel
your communication was in fact posted, originally, in the wrong section - as you will see, we have a variety of separate country locations depending on the known origin of the glass in question.
In those instances where the origin of someone's glass is unknown - which is frequently - then the posting should correctly be in 'Glass', although in your case since we know the origin it should have been posted in 'British and Irish Glass'. You'll see there are a variety of countries, and assuming a piece is eventually identified, it is then moved to the appropriate country of origin - if not, then it stays in Glass, permanently.
Fear not - Anne has simply moved your thread to the correct section as a permanent resting place.
As for changing the subject heading, this is probably something only the Mods can do - and they may have some doubts with this one - so may leave the heading unchanged from your original post - at least temporarily.
As a newcomer, you're allowed to make mistakes - it matters not.
