Love it, but the 'a' so commonly put inbetween Thomas and Beckett is a Victorian affectation. Can we plaese drop it as we did Boadicea?

Where was this piece of glass found? Could the glass be associated with clockmaking (lantern clocks in particular)? There's a Samuel Davis who was apprenticed to one of the founding members of the Clockmakers Guild in 1641. Clockmakers had to be able to engrave, work with glass, metal and wood. There are several sites associated with lantern clockmakers around this time. It this piece of glass comes from one of them, it might be possible to link this apprentice to this bottle fragment.
