According to Glass fact File a-z, Haanstra, if I read it right, Brierley without the Royal seems to have always been an option, but just Brierley post 1960. it hasn't actually changes its name recently. I suspect the posh ranges used the Royal

Ivo may be able to explain better

Dartington Crystal now own the Brierley brand. They could only use the Royal with appropriate crown approval.
