    I think I put this on the ebay boards a number of years ago but can't find it so here goes. I think it was suggested as likely Bohemian glass.

    I'll probably put this as a giveaway but thought I'd get some guidance on what it is first.

    It has light cutting for the flower petals and the leaves. The petals have blue enamel in the cuts then sealed with gilt. The saucer measures 5" across and the cup is 2½" high. It is light and delicate with a bit of wear to the gilt. No maker's marks or sig.

    That style of gilded cutting looks more English to me, rather than Bohemian ..just a guess though ...

    I've seen that engraved gilt ware attributed to St Louis (San Louie) No documentation.

    I forgot that I had another cut with gilt piece stashed away. It's the tall one in the center. (The other wine glass/sherbet isn't cut).

    Thanks for the help and thoughts!

    I'm going to offer the cup and saucer in the "Give Away" section for anyone that may be interested.
