congratulations Chris :mrgreen:  -  very nice.    This colourway is shown in Susan Tobin's book 'Wedgwood Glass'  -  and appears to be described as 'Orange/Yellow' - and was marketed in three sizes, although not sure what they were, or where yours comes in the trio.   Nonetheless, very good find.

I forgot to add, for interest, that for this vase shape the Wedgwood code was RSW/103/1  -  3 depending on size.

Dare I say reminds me of Mdina maybe? say early because of the shape and style and heavy base wear, does the smooth polished pontil mark rule out Mdina, not sure I know Boffo used this style on his pieces :ooh:
Sorry if I am getting a head of myself here  :-[
At least it will grab your attention Sue :sun:
