Etched drinking glass signed-id help please
« on: August 27, 2010, 09:59:26 PM »
Im wondering if any one can help me with this drinking glass ,i have done some research but am at a loss now.
The base is wider than the top and it is etched with delicate vine and grape type pattern,,it has faint seam lines to the base and stem but stop at the bell shaped bowl so does that mean its new? its in very good condition (no scratches anywhere)..also it has a signiture on the upper base that i have no idea what it says ,,i would be gratefull for any info .

I hope you don't mind, but I've made a close-up of the signature, perhaps it will help.  I've deleted your photograph from my computer now.  :)

Edit:  Actually, that didn't really work!  I'll have another go later.  ::)
