Topic: Please help ID mark on crystal champagne flutes

[Kerrie789]

I have two of these heavy crystal champagne flutes. They are very nice quality and measure 7" tall and 2 1/4" wide. Initially I thought the mark was a crown or W, but haven't found anything looking in that direction. I looked at trident marks and M companies. I've looked at many marks and stemware, but haven't had any luck. Does anyone recognize this, or could point me in a new direction to research? Many thanks!!

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi Kerrie  -  sorry it may look as though we're ignoring you....    can promise you we're not.        Taking into account both sides of the pond, there are a vast amount of acid or sand blasted backstamps on glass, many well known but probably many more that didn't find their way into some form of recorded system, and therefore unavailable for us to check.

As a suggestion you may care to try another avenue of research which will mean looking at the glass Replacement web sites to attempt to locate the cut pattern of your flute  - I think the major one of which is on your side of the pond.       It can mean a lot of eye work in searching through these on line patterns, but if all else fails then this suggestion might just possibly work.

best of luck.

Thanks Paul! No luck so far on the replacements site, but I will keep looking.

Enjoy your day,
Kerrie

I spent ages trying to track down a reference for "Royal Krona", because I suspected that might be it, but just ended up horribly confused.

Thank you for your efforts, Sue! I will check out that company as well.
