<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Adrian Lewis, post: 2642252, member: 12565&quot;]No-one can be 100% sure as we are all going on past experience and accumulated knowledge and not one of us has all the answers on this very long learning curve. All I can say is I had a lot of America furniture, glassware, oil lamps etc through my auction house over the years. 20/30 years ago and more Mary Gregory glassware was the epitome of 19thC glass collecting in England, Fenton glass and&nbsp; Carnival&nbsp; glass etc etc were other huge areas of collectables. In UK we also had a lot of itinerant workers from Europe in many trades so I do&#039;t exclude European design/copy possibly made in England. Mid late 19thC London was full of German silversmiths importing German silver for example. I was taught a simple but sometimes long winded method of identification: Take away what isn&#039;t and you find out what is, as I tried to do in my first post and I am confident this wasn&#039;t made by a good&nbsp; &quot;English&quot; cabinet maker of the day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
