No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

No, I realise that. I'm just going with S&W as the most likely candidates. :-)

Grand.  :)
If you have a peek at the links at the bottom of Lustrousstone's posts, you'll see something called My Gallery. Click on that, then enter the site - it's perfectly safe. Put in a search at the top for the word "threaded" and you'll find two pages of photos of various threaded pieces.

Good grief! Lustrousstone is a certifiable glassoholic. ;D

Always be wary of Stevens and Williams Internet attributions. It is way overused; wrong perhaps 80% of the time. And this jug could be by many companies.

You're quite right, of course. I was making comparisons with my books too, once I had an idea of which company's wares to consider. I doubt I'll ever know for certain, but it's all part of the interest. :)
