Hi and welcome.
I don't know anything about your glass piece (not my area), sorry.
However, you've put a lot of links in here, only one works and the image is sideways on.

I'm sure one of our Moderators will sort the extra links out, but could we ask you not to put links in the title in future - perhaps; "Is this 19th century English?" would have given your readers a better idea of what to expect, and would attract the attention of somebody who does know this area of glass.
Also, would you be kind enough to only put one piece of glass in a thread. This keeps the discussions on track.
Thanks.  :thup:

Hi Scott,

I have tidied up your message to remove the excess links and to change the title of the thread. I have also moved your threads from the British & Irish forum to the general Glass forum as this is where initial requests for ID should be posted. If we get confirmation of a particular country then a Moderator will move the thread to the relevant forum.

Having said, that, your covered goblet does look to be of an Irish or English style.

Scott, please make sure that you have a space before and after all URL entries, otherwise it will be treated as non-clickable text. I have amended your 3rd link above to make it clickable.
