Title: Pair Monogrammed Uranium Glasses
Post by: dinklepip on March 29, 2008, 04:45:27 PM

A pair of monogrammed uranium wine glasses.  Again, no idea of how to ID these.  Are they just personalised wine glasses perhaps?

English Tudor Crown and letters CH. Clarence House perhaps. Do they have a souvenir shop? Could also have been a gift to visitors.

Actually, the Tudor crown was used as the English coronation crown between about 1902 and 1953, when the St Edward's crown replaced it, so these glasses would seem to have been engraved between those dates.

Maybe if they weren't made in the UK. A yellow bowl is fairly unusual, although I have one that I would say was quite modern and maybe Czech or Italian

Probably not if the cipher really is for Clarence House

Write to them with a picture, they are extremely helpful.
