    This is my grandmother's "Crystal" that I now believe is American Brilliant Cut Glass. The pattern seems to match with the Libbey Tornado Pattern but I am just learning and eager to find out more. This has also been in my family since it was purchased by my grandmother in either Philadelphia or New Jersey.

      Celestina, this is a beautiful set, love the pitcher! The lozenge in the third pic looks very ABP to me, but I'm no expert. You can try posting your pieces on the ACGA page at FB for pattern identification.

      Good luck!

      Thank you for your comments and ideas. I will be posting these items on the Facebook Page for American Cut Glass Assn. I can not find any words on the bottom but will try to learn more from the webpages you have all recommended.
