Message:: [QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 184789, member: 59"]I have a few pieces of cut glass that were my mother's, her mother's and possibly the next mother back (my great grandmother.) I have tried off and on to see if I could find any marks, but have only found 1 "maybe" mark, shown in the attached picture (which I know is not the greatest, but it's the best I could do.) The mark in on a low dish, 7 inches in diameter and about 1.5 inches tall, with no handle. Without a handle does this qualify to be called a nappy? The "mark" is located on one of the larger cut and polished surfaces on the outside, near the point at which the dish rests on the table. This picture makes it look like an A, but when I first saw it, it looked more like a C with a slight bump-out on it's back. I have Martha Louise Swan's "American Cut and Engraved Glass" but do not see anything in her section of marks that this could match. I have also attached a picture of the main cutting motif which repeats around the outside. The bright line on the left side is a reflection and not a crack. Is there any chance the maker can be identified? TIA [ATTACH=full]51852[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]51853[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
