Hi Lustrousstone
Have taken a look at their site, very expensive quality stuff!
One engraved piece with a different design but same body shape was marked 1980 and the engraver's name. No idea how long they produced this shape so maybe difficult tracking down the engraver.
Thanks for your help

Hi there, thanks for the reply. I'll have to assume that the capital letter for the first name has worn away. The sticker says it was made exclusively for Bradbury something? And doesn't look like the red paper ones on the link, maybe if my tech skills improve I'll upload. Father Ted is real life now lol

Cumbria Crystal blow their own stuff: https://cumbriacrystal.com/. Some but not all their people are given on the website but of course things change over time. It's worth a visit if you are up that way

Hi
Having searched around I now believe this to be a Cumbria Crystal piece. Have found one or two examples online and the sizes seem a match. Still no idea who the engraver was, would it be in house or purchased blank?
Any help appreciated
Cheers

 :) It took your experience with glass and your ability to recognise quality to have spotted them.
It's not all down to luck. But what a joyful thing to experience.  8)

  Appreciate the item specifics, thanks. The pair are in an excellent state of preservation. Could pass for new except for some very minimal base ware. I feel lucky to have found them. $5.00 U.S. at the local thrift store.
