That's a wonderful treasure you have. I have 5 from my grandmother, but I know she didn't make them. Was it her mom? My mom's not sure since no one is left from my dad's side. Even just initials would clear up who made them.

I am thinking of making labels for my 5 with my name, inherited from GM, possibly made by GGM. You could do something similar with your 20.

I do label mine, but now am thinking of embroidering my name & year along the edge somewhere. I have a short name!
