In the small book Miller’s Glass Antiques Checklist, Mark West (consultant) they say “glasses made c.1860-1880 are characterised by a collar under the bowl”. They are talking about coloured glasses there but presumably it would also apply to clear glasses like yours. I don’t suppose the collar ‘rule’ is 100% reliable for dating though, that would be too easy!
