How can you tell if a glass is Dorothy Thorpe?
1 Answer
To tell if a glass is Dorothy Thorpe, examine the base or interior for the maker's mark. It is a large “D” followed by a small “T.” Many pieces will have the marking sandblasted onto the glass, but others may feature paper labels. Because these paper labels may detach with usage, authentic Dorothy Thorpe glassware can be missing the maker's markings. As a result, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer aid you with the identification process. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Dorothy Thorpe glasses.
