thanks Glen  -  you may have seen that in quite recent weeks I had a confirmation from Colin Green, who is the manager at Alum Bay - regarding an attribution that did in fact turn out to be one of theirs (a very different design however).   I'm sure it wouldn't be out of place to request his help again, and I don't think he would mind.   So I will send him an email with these pictures.   Will let you know how I get on. :)   Paul S.

In view of Glen's suggestion, I forwarded these pictures to Colin Green at Alum Bay, and am now extremely happy to say I have received his reply as follows:

"Hi Paul that is a one off piece I made quite some time back .
I would say 1999 ish.
It looks like a purple with silver leaf and a strap and then oxidized and iridized.
Kind regards
Colin
Regards, Alum Bay Glass"

So, my sincere thanks again to Colin Green for his very generous help  -  also for Glen's suggestion of Alum Bay in the first place - which feel certain I would probably not have considered.             Grateful if the mods. will now move this to the appropriate place, and my thanks to everyone who contributed. :)     Paul S.
