Does anyone know anything about lead crystal decanters ?

I realise this may be an impossible task after spending days looking at Google images of Crystal Decanters, but over the last few months I have picked up several extremely heavy lead crystal decanters but have no idea as to the age or manufacturers, if anyone knows of any good reference source the could recommend it would be appreciated.

The style looks quite Czech - so possibly Bohemia Podebrady Glassworks?
