Hi Chris,

did you just want to show the weight - or ask for an attribution? It's Caithness - see here

BTW - edition size was 250.

Thanks Wolf did suspect Caithness but somehow maybe the colour? or the lack of script on the base maybe threw me.
Another one here is was I expected to see on the base, notice the 4s are very similar, same hand?

Both were commissioned by Peter Jones China of Wakefield, and commissioned weights were often not signed Caithness - just don't ask me why one of them is signed after all, the other one not.
