Hello, welcome to the board. Am I correct that the images you have uploaded are not your own? If so we will need to remove them under the Board's use of copyright images rule. You can provide a link to other people's images but not upload them here unless you have received their express permission to do so.

Hi Anne,

I am the owner of those Stuart glasses now. Those picture were taken during the auction period by the auction house.

I will remove those pic and use a link instead.

Regards
Jim

Might be an idea to change your user ID to something other than an email address? There's a possibility it could be misused.

Replacements.com is a good place to start for matching patterns, but you need someone like Chris (brucebanner) to take a look as he is quite knowledgeable in this area.

Thanks Jim, we need to err on the side of caution re copyright. :)  If you can either post a link or add pics of your own glasses that you have taken, into a new reply, I'll remove the images for you. You can't edit posts yourself after an hour, it needs a Mod to do that for you.

And David is right re your username - using the email address as a display name isn't such a good plan. You can keep it as your login name, that's not a problem, but it's not wise to show it on the forum as it will be spam harvested. I'll change how it displays for you (again it's not something that you can do yourself.)

Try looking at Beau as a pattern.

Not Beau they have a distinctive facet cut stem, large bowl and no star cut foot.  i did have a good look for these and drew a blank.

Have you checked the Stuart catalogue on our image site here?
