I have this goblet which is about 4½ inches high. It is Swedish and seems to have been made in Ulricehamn around 1820. The maker’s marks is “ILB” in a rectangle. Can anyone help with the maker or confirm my version of its origins?

(Sorry about the picture quality).

Hello, most likely Johannes Lyberg from Ulrikehamn (b. 1756, d. 1831), active there ca. 1788 until 1823, when his son took over the workshop. Best wishes, Bahner

Thank you Bahner. It is good to know that someone has records of silversmiths that I have not yet added to my collection.
