Seems all these pieces I inherited from my mom fall into catagory of America Brilliant Cut Glass. I was always thinking 'surely these beautiful pieces must have a much classier name then just cut glass' like my mom would call them ... but guess she was right.
I can hear her now reacting to my revelation by saying, "Haven't I always told you your mama is always right?" And I did admit to her on many occasions in her golden years that yes she had always been right (well 99% of the time) and I should have listened to her from the get go .... smile!
She certainly is demonstrating to you her excellent taste!
This is not from the American Brilliant Cut Glass era which is 1880-1916. These are much newer and most likely Imports from Europe. We see these pieces from Europe all the time on our American cut glass websites.
