    At Purdys about 5000 pound considering a small Chinese made ceramic mug with a hunting scene tranfer on it was 25 pound!

    The first one of these sold in USA at the Safari Club convention, Reno for £650
    The second one,a very large vase, which was engraved for Royal Brierley Crystal sold in Harrods ,London but I don't know how much Royal Brierley sold it for, as it was in their concessionary shop in Harrods I dread to think how much it was. It was many years ago.

    David well worth that sort of money for the craftsmanship, do you every break one in the process? And is is an annealed glass you use?

    The only one I have broken was the last engraving of a set of 136 pieces I engraved for The Sultan of Oman, I had just finished it and caught the engraving light with it -had to sit up engraving a replacement until 2am because I had to deliver them to Royal Brierley Crystal that day.
