Title: Blackheath Glassworks
Post by: Pat on July 27, 2008, 04:53:23 PM

I bought a rather nice set of cut sherry glasses still in original tartan box today. Each has a Blackheath Glassworks label. I have googled them and can find nothing. Does anyone know when they were in existence?

They were a decorators, Oak Barn Rd, Blackheath, Birmingham. Directors Doris Plant and Enid H. Boaler.

Earliest mention in my records 1962.
