famous turtle treasures said:Dorothy Thorpe can be marked with a sticker that says Dorothy Thorpe made in California. If the sticker is not on it then the only way you can tell is by the silver band on the glasses. The silver band will tarnish like real silver. It is made in 1" silver ( or gold )band and the allegro pattern which is 1/2 inch. Dorothy Thorpe designed a lot of other glassware but these are the ones that I focus on. The Roly Poly glasses are hot right now. If you want to do some vintage cocktail research I suggest getting madmen on Netflix. Pay attention to the glasses they drink out of, and the decor on the set.

Yeah, that's what I was going to say...if real ivory/hand carved...could be big $$$'s.
