Question : Are Waterford & Galway Irish Crystal The Same Thing?
Are these 2 brand names one and the same or two different manufacturers? Does Waterford Crystal own Galway Crystal? I have a crystal biscuit barrel that has "Galway" marked on the bottom and a clear label (on the upper rim) with what appears to be a shamrock and some lettering so small that I cannot possibly read. Is this piece Waterford?
