Hi folks
Looking for help to id this glass cake plate my friend has..she was told it was Hobbs glass ?Anyway, she asked me to try and help her find the maker so i came to the experts !Below id what she said in email:

"Whilst giving it a quick clean I found a mark, very well hidden on the inside of the bowl which is hard to see but appears to be a diamond with a small circle on the top with 111 in the circle and T in top of diamond, 1 R 16 across middle of the diamond and 2 in the bottom of the diamond.  It is hard to read.

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)
