Glass decanter help on make

Happy New Year All! Found this lovely decanter for gin and it has a mark on the bottom but I can’t find the make. Any help would be great! Thanks!

 

It doesn't have the same mark on the stopper does it? It kind of looks like 33 stacked.

 

No the stopper is not marked but looking at it it seems it’s a reflection of the mark, maybe the way they took the picture.

 

Maybe a WW or CuCu

 

Maybe its the pics but it sure looks like your glass is "sick" .That white cloudiness that is impossible to get off. I dont think the stopper is correct either.

 

Or maybe just hungover?

 

Stopper is fine, it's a mid to late 19th globe and shaft decanter. Shape is usually sherry or port, so to have that engraving is unusal. The glass sickness kills it which is such a shame.

 

This might help

 

Thanks for this.

 

Amazing! I’ll try it out and let you know.

 

He doesn't say what the abrasive powder is, just that it's all natural. Does anyone know what he used?

 

Here's his site. www.ians-polishing-kits.com It isn't up and running yet. If you look at the comments on the video, there is speculation such as
"Magic powder is more than probably Cerium Oxide Glass Polishing Powder."

 

Ian had sold his kits on eBay-UK in the past per multiple WP listings. His old web site is closed down it seems; I recall looking there years ago. Perhaps someone can track him down thru eBay-UK

seems all of his youtube videos are at least 7-8 years old

Cerium oxide is the usual thing.

 

Thanks everyone, I Googled and can find it from a lot of sites.

I will have to think about this, it will require making something like the tool he made to hold the sponges. I have a nice piece that has silver overlay and a lot of deposits on the inside. I tried all the usual home remedies and they didn't do much. If I can pull everything together to give it a try I will start a "before and after" thread on it.

 

Wire coat hanger time!

 

Wow this has been great! I will try it as well and post the results!
