I would like to respond to the discussion concerning the identification of the crystal vase on the right. It is by Sinclaire.

The Met allows you to search their collection and obtain information about various object.

The object and related information are at the following URL.

In the meantime Michael Krumme comments:

Last night I got out my Sinclaire books and looked for a matching cutting, but didn’t spot one. But perhaps someone else with keener eyes, more patience, or better experience with Sinclaire can confirm or rule out that company as the maker of the vase.
