Hi Robert,  :hi: You have probably already seen this one...similar, has a registration mark, and is Greener Glass in amber. I'll keep looking for you for a true match.

It is of course possible that the handle was a Greener mould. Davidson bought moulds from lots of companies that went out of business. Jobling bought Greener but might have sold some of the moulds.

The pattern of the body of the basket is Davidson.
