Brand newbie here with plea for help with identification. Small pink mottled vase with very clear mark on bottom consisting of three lions. I thought it would be a doddle finding maker on web.......4 hours later all I've gained is cramp ! :roll:

Hi,

It sounds as though it could possibly be Guernsey Glass from your description but I can't find an example at the moment.

Hope this helps,
Pkay.

See topic Help with identifying glass - 3 lions mark

It is a great pleasure to welcome a fellow moonraker to the GMB.

Fantastic.......thanks for the info. Guernsey sounds good to me ! Much impressed by this result, I'm off to rummage ( gently ) through my hoard of obscurities to find more unidentified items ........ I'm on a roll !

I KNEW I had a photo of the logo somewhere and finally managed to find it.

I have this in a much higher resolution if anyone needs it, as well as the item it was found on, but it is always a devil to photo. I seem to remember taking a photo of another item some time ago, but will really need to rummage around for that one...

I no longer have either piece, so this is as good as it gets.

:D:D

I'd agree, Island Glass Studio, in Guernsey.
Pink, mottled, pontil stamp, all very positive id.
Is the rim of the vase "frilly"?
