<p>[QUOTE="Cherryhill, post: 79693, member: 70"]If you are concerned that because it isn't 'signed' is has less value, be aware that many/most fine art glass pieces made before the US of A required the marking of the country of origin on imported wares. Thus unmarked RS Prussia is older than the marked, often by 20 or 30 years. (Not that this is RS Prussia, just using that for an example. Moser was made as early as 1880 and marks weren't required until about 1912. </p><p><br /></p><p>I would not reject that piece from my collection because it wasn't marked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
