Looking for help on ID of this small lidded syrup. It measures 3 1/8 by 3 1/8 and is pumpkin or plum shape with zipper or ladder ribs. Polished bottom and glows heavy yellow/green under black light. I tried the EAPG group, but some thought it may be cut glass. There are no mold lines and was once silver plated lid.
often hard to tell from photos, but from the last photo this appears to be maybe APB cut glass. usually get better details of clear glass/crystal by photographing with darker neutral background.
Was informed that this is cut glass and was made in New England....some in western Europe. Time period made be between 1876-1917 maybe. Anyone else have anything to confirm or add to this?
Thanks TallCakes, I have tried black background as well as negative and have not been able to improve the detail.
