Title: Small pub glass question.
Post by: keith on June 23, 2020, 12:40:39 PM

Just 3 inches tall, the bowl has what looks like a factory made rim, the foot is a 2 part mould and appears to have been added later, I'm presuming it's English but wondered about it's date of manufacture,  ??? ;D ;D

It's difficult to tell but it looks like it has the roughly "T" shaped mark on the foot. This is thought to come from where it was cut using shears. This would probably date it to 1860-80 but possibly up to 1900.

Thanks Nev, it's a bit of an odd one, I thought it was quite new when I got it but after closer inspection and your comments I'm not so sure,ta  ;D ;D
