No, but un-ID'd as far as I'm aware. Very common though.

You're welcome. Enjoy. I have one of these brown things too, but it's in a box and hasn't smiled for the camera yet.

This was discussed at least once before. If you google Dal Borgo Murano Glass you'll see others with labels.

Hi Gareth  :hi:

Please can I take this opportunity to mention that Wedgwood doesn't have an 'e' in the middle.

I know it sounds pedantic,  but I can't tell you how much it irritates....especially when an item has a label with Wedgwood  on it and the seller still adds the extra 'e'!

At least in this case, regardless of whether it is Wedgwood or not, (and I really wouldn't know  :pb:) at least they got the spelling right!

So your title for this thread was perhaps more accurate than the eBay seller's item!!  :sun:

Apart from pedantry, the mis-spelling throws the Search function out too cos it's not smart enough to know they both mean the same firm.  :o

But would English spelling rules not indicate that the "e" should be there (i.e., to soften a vowel, put an "e" behind it).  :huh:
