Title: Is anyone out there familiar with lead- crystal identification
Post by: Pringleplace on March 23, 2011, 08:14:30 am

After hours of research I am no closer to finding out more about the crystal I have here! I have several large heavy items of cut rose crystal and some of them have different marks inside the rose pattern which I think may be significant in identification. I have seen some for sale on the net, but know one seems to write anything about the pieces. I have just about exhausted my powers of searching and need a little help to some sites or people that could give me an idea!

I will not post pics yet until I know whether there is anyone who can help me!

There are several here that are great with glassware. However we do need to see it and know what the marks are !! It probably would take a bit of research because there are so many types/marks and makers !!

send query and pics here http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=4d37e6d29583a39bf7f8fb6087810a66;www . it is another free messageboard and if they cannot find it there then probably noone can. I get most of my troublesome IDs there...the glass specialists/hobbiests are very knowledgeable.
