I was not sure who made it. It is made of lead crystal and not lead glass so I felt it was not Lorraine. I was not sure that EDAG used lead crystal.

Re Unsigned basket Empty yes re crystal and EDAG

Hi again,

The vast majority of EDAG pieces seem to be crystal and their marking (a sticker) says "Hand Made Crystal". I have a few EDAG pieces that are very clunky but maybe like Chalet - started out semi-crystal and upgraded. Perhaps the really bad EDAG pieces are earler ones?

I have only ever seen Lorraine "crossed fingers" that seem to be crystal - much more finely made than their usual pieces. I have a few really nice pieces of Lorraine that seem to have a much higher lead content - and as I said, that particular style of Lorraine really seems consisently to be made more finely.
