Thanks Keith -- i would not know where to start, so with your suggestion of Davidson, I have now found some like this IF that attribution on Ebay is Correct Click HERE

There it says they are called ?? a Diamond and Fan design separated with a double fan design.  Also says a 10 oz size of glass and that they came with 2 glasses, a pitcher, and a serving tray....Well I am kinda missing the *pitcher and the serving tray*  ;D .....but I guess I have the 2 glasses.

Mine here look prettier   :spls2: as mine seem to be more Opalescent that those one, or else maybe it just does not show up well in their Pictures ??   

Wow, they are asking $29.95 for one glass  :o

Is this what they are called?  Is that the correct name?  Any date for them?  As that is all I have found so far...with Keith help.  :clap:

They are indeed Davidson Blue Pearline, pattern number 96945, registered in March 1888. Very nice find Rose. They may not have come as a set, as described. Americans like sets, but the English aren't so fussed. And the price is probably about right.

All you ever wanted to know about Davidson here http://www.cloudglass.com/. Look in the cloud glass too when looking for something, as designs were often made in all colours including cloud.

Thanks Lustrousstone :o :o  These are from 1888, or approx around that date.  I never expected them to be that old.....I am surprised...and Thanks for that link too  :thup:
