These are Georgian replicas produced by Hill Ouston c1935. Their range of Georgian style glasses was so well made that many are now available on the market and being sold as the genuine article. We do not believe that they themselves intended to deceive however and were simply paying homage to the great history of British glass making. So faithful are these glasses to the originals that they would fool all but the most experienced of collectors and reputable dealers. Copper wheel engraved, faithful Jacobite symbology, they have it all, except age.
