It does look like it,  but it also reminds me of what I think I have seen and think of as a Stevens and Williams squat ish green vase with a turned in claw type rim - err, hard to describe but I'm sure it also has the triple trail spiral or something on it.
I'd look into S&W as well perhaps?

Thanks both, I'll have a look at S & W's and 'uranium' I think it might be  :o

Without it being  signed could be tricky Manly reckons a lot of uranium could be Webbs.

Much as I love the glass in the Manley book I think some of his observations were based on gut instinct from conversations he'd had with makers.  There is nothing wrong with that as a first start point or as an indicator of where to start looking of course.  But I would not use it as verbatim reference source.

I think it might be Walsh Walsh. I have a thingy with a triple rib that I concluded was Walsh http://lustrousstone.co.uk/cpg/displayimage.php?pid=1498 I do need to find it to confirm the triple rib, however

I bet whoever made yours made these two, same size and similar rim, uranium and a moulded base.

Chris I think these could be Stuart - possibly pattern number 18900 shape although it's possible that pattern number is for the design.  The design is green trails on the clear glass but swirled at the neck as yours are (but these are actual trails) and the other difference is that it appears to only have 3 pulls at the rim not 6.  However, I'm going to add Stuart into the mix for yours.
They did make an opalescent 'peacock' eye bowl iirc - not sure about the red trailed rim, but they did use red mixed with another colour on a peacock eye style bowl again iirc.
They came in 4" tall and 6" tall in the decor with the green trails.

And I think yours are maybe a slightly different shape to Keith's? Maybe not though.
