ID this crown please
« on: June 19, 2009, 04:56:26 PM »
I've bought this nice small crown.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3502070095319531


But who made it?   Unfortunately, the signature cane is blurred and unreadable  (it's  not the photo  -  the cane itself is blurred).     The ribbons etc are screaming John Deacons at me, but who else might it be?   Not Perthshire?  Not Murano?   Not St Louis (well you can hope). 


Cheers


Keith.

Hi Keith

Looks very, very like a John Deacons to me, with a blurred 'thistle' as part of the signature cane.

I've seen a Deacons crown with that same pink star top. Definitely Deacons.
