Title: Jack Allan or Caithness Glass?
Post by: alpha on October 02, 2009, 02:10:46 AM

Any one think this inkwell is really Caithness Glass? The signature cane looks more like an upside down and rotated "CG" cane. And Jack Allan's signature cane is a "JA" and not a single "A".

I agree.
This is a "CG" signature cane and not "A". If it was an "A" it would be Alan Scott,but it is not.

I have very similar bottle, with similar design canes - particularly a number with hearts in.  No signature cane, but acid etched Caithness Romance
