crystal bowl

This was my Grandmother's, I can't find one like it anywhere, one that was similar was dated 1890 but it's not the same. I want to know who made it, how much it's worth for insurance purposes. When you tape it it has a beautiful ring, the pattern is very unusual, but a beautiful bowl.

There's likely someone here very familiar with ages, companies and patterns so hang in there.  ;)

Is your bowl marked "Nu-Cut" on the bottom?

"Cut" crystal has really "sharp" edges on the sawtooth rim of the bowl, etc.

Just drag your finger across the top edge of the rim.

I can't see any markings, and no the edges are not sharp.
