can anyone help with mark on crystal

Post by Cornish Maid on Tue Jan 04, 2011 7:45 pm

Hi,
I have some heavy lead crystal wine glass, with a mark I can't identify.
Etched on the base of each glass is a Lion, upright,not on all fours.
Can anyone tell me who the maker is please

Hi Cornish maid, welcome to the forum

The members will always probably need pics of your glasses and the bases please?

Doing a quick Google search I noticed that 'Davidson Glass' introduced a range of cut lead crystal glassware in 1960, it has a raised lion trademark on the base. Hope this may be of some help!

Thank you,
I did find 'Davidson Glass' but was still unsure as they did mostly pressed glass,and I have not been able to get any pics.
Skay asked for some pics, still trying to work out how to send them!
Thanks again

Doulton use a Lion on their glass ware, but as Sue says its hard to be precise without pictures. Good luck and hope this helps.
