[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 497510, member: 51"]Dgb, Good advice, thanks. I have a tiny bit of provenance in that they have some age, were from a wealthy former owner (local artist), she was in her 90s. Not purchased in the last several decades at least. (Maybe rules out Asian.) Thanks for the link Bronwen. Noticed on the Gina site in the link, this Gina person shows (what looks like my sherbets) pieces as being PV, but hard to be sure. They do seem to have some quality in the hand, but I will use careful wording if I sell, as Dgb suggested. Also, I am so out of my element with the glass sites, Tall Cakes are you talking about the 8" piece above (with Imperial sticker?) The quote: [I] "The color of Imperial is a little more faded and a little bit lighter blue then the French Opaline. Also, the stem is a little bit more “squatty” or shorter and also slightly chunkier." [/I]This description actually fits the group I have in a way. The large piece is a more faded and lighter blue. Learning! Thanks! :happy:[/QUOTE]
