Thought it might be Nazeing but can only find one to compare to other than my bowl and it's not the same.   I don't think it is the same as some other herringbone pieces unid'ed on here (will find link in a mo)
Measures 8" tall by diameter 5 1/2".  Made in three layers plus angular applied amber foot, green then white combing then green again with the amber from the foot seemingly thinly cased slightly up the lamp bottom part.  Great colour as it goes a pear green where the lamp is blown wider but is darker at the top and then has the amber foot.
Any thoughts much appreciated :) many thanks

 ???

Not Nazeing, I really don't think - could it be contemporary Studio in an older syle - it looks really, really beautifully made, and more of a "one-off" or only a small number of pieces made?
Either that, or it's genuinely old and something very special. I've not seen anything like it and I would not have missed that. It would have been screaming at me from the other side of the room.

That looks to me to be a far thinner piece of glass - and the combing isn't of such good, regular quality.
Your vase is Nazeing, isn't it, Christine?
Flying-free's lamp isn't in Nazeing colours, the combing looks "larger".

The combing reminds me most of the lamp-base of by the unknown Czech Manufacturer of the stuff which often gets mistaken for Monart.  There are pics of it here (but I don't know where  :-\ ) - it's a globe-shaped pink and blue piece with amber rigaree with mica inclusions.. I may have a pic in some recesses of my pc.

Found a pic of one similar... just for comparison of the herringbone pattern

Great minds and all that  ;D
Christine the combing on  your piece is very similar to the combed pieces I was thinking of on here that are unid'ed - Ivo has one I recall - Ishall find it in a mo .  I think? the combing on those is much more irregular than this lamp though. I've attached a pic on black below to show the regularity of it.
Sue...that's exactly what I was thinking and wondering if anyone else would mention it.  I'll try and find that link as well. It has the spirit of those lamp bases doesn't it?

Yes.  Curvy, substantial, confident.

Mine is pretty thick glass and heavy too. Not Nazeing, at least NB and Geoff Tmberlake didn't think so when they looked at Pete's

The plot thickens.  :)

got that pic from this thread. I got the colours wrong though! It's blue with white herringbone and two different shades of pink, one internal, the other used for the rigaree.

I can't see the piece in question being covered in rigaree - it just wouldn't look right.
