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.

Sowerby Rummer/Goblet
« on: March 03, 2023, 10:34:10 AM »
 This appears to be a variation on the Sowerby 861 goblet shown on P.28 of the 1874 catalogue:

It has the ovals but only two rows of swags, not four. I've not been able to find a similar one elsewhere. Density comes out at 2.88gms/cm3.
