(PS it is the very same mould. Will it understand the Brummy accent?)

It's Brummie where I come from  ;)

But I think consolidating all the jelly mould threads is a good idea.

I suppose it's the gelatine that makes that happen ?? ;) ;)

I recall there are some jelly mould designs in the Kew archives from around the middle of the C19 - and if I get the time I'll add them to this thread.

not in the Blue Book - perhaps another CLASS IV Registration  .....   I'll have a look in the Kew records some time.
Would have been allocated in March 1934.

A google search reveals another style marked Lushus and I see this is currently on eBay. Possibly related to the US company making jellies under this tradename?

Of course this one may not be British, so it can be moved if thought best.             I wondered if the Star of David (in relief on the bottom of the inside) might indicate some connection with Roy's LUSHUS mould which has a similar motif in the shape of the mould, but only guessing and probably unrelated entirely.
No other marks or words at all, and about 5.5" (140 mm) in diameter, with some wear but not very old I don't think.
Presumably these things are pressed in one piece moulds ??  -  certainly can't find any seams.

Here is a very rare jelly mould in black glass by Greener & Co., RD 38582, design registered on 23 November 1885. Measures 13.5 x 10 x 7cm.

(Permission for the re-use of these images on the GMB granted by Kevin Collins).

Jenny Thompson (page 15) gives the design description as ‘Shape for a glass mould’.

I know of no other image of this mould – does anyone have pix to show of the mould in other colours, please?

Fred.

Bernard has already mentioned this 'anchor and rope' mould, although not sure that there is a picture in this thread  -  but apologies if I am doubling up.                 No marks or other identifying details that I can see, and about 5.3/8" (135 mm) long, so possibly a half pint or a little less.       Some noticeable wear - might the design indicate this having originated possibly somewhere in the 1939 - 45 period?

Do we have a manufacturers name for this particular design does anyone know?     I did bang anchor and rope jelly mould into the Board's search, but nothing to assist that I could see.

Probably Leerdam, according to Patricia. Ivo might be able to back this up.

Edit: Forgot the Ivo had already confirmed this on the first page of this thread:
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,56215.msg321712.html#msg321712

Rope and Anchor might be a better search term, BTW!  :D
