Hi all, I think some of you are missing the point of what I was trying to communicate to you. Yes there are tool marks all around the applied/overlaid black, you would expect that, as with both methods the black would have to  be worked on, but with applied glass far less. You also have to take into account the carver may not of been  of the best quality. The areas to concentrate looking for tool marks are the areas well away from the black. I can see no tool marks in these areas. Meaning they have never been worked on, Therefor this bottle could not be produced by the overlay method.

Kind regards Jason.
