<p>[QUOTE="TallCakes, post: 428120, member: 107"]haven't really studied the compotes; but with the cake stand the stem/pedestal is solid and a noticeably different design; the foot of the reproductions is more domed and a smaller diameter than the originals. I'm not sure about the glass used by Smith; but one check might be to do a UV black light test where EAPG pieces would have a faint green glow. Having the faint glow might NOT necessarily be a determinant (cause some companies did make more recent vintage glass that glows), but the lack of the glow would be.</p><p><br /></p><p>Might try studying the examples at EAPGS.org and compare to those listed at "R". But try using the colored examples at "R" cause you can't be certain that they did not incorrectly use a original piece in the crystal examples.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
