Re: Lead Crystal Goblet
I have fifteen similar goblets. The size and shape are almost identical. The pattern is different but very similar. I know that the goblets I have were a gift to my grandparents for their wedding in In 1915. I have been trying to identify them for a while now. There are no markings on the glass. We always thought they were Swedish in origin but not sure. Grandparents married in Chicago so assume they were purchased there but that is just an assumption. Would love to know more.
