Large green jug for id, please.

8.5 inches tall, large polished pontil mark and some wear, very similar green to Webb's 'Bristol' range.  ;D

Are there really striations on the polished pontil mark?
Should I assume the question mark I can see on it, isn't really there?
It's looking a bit related to a kingfisher coloured jug I (finally got around to) took pics of today. The the battery went flat before I could download them. It's currently charging.
I was suspecting Poland for my jug, and hoping, probably forlornly,  ;D that it might be a Zbigniew Horbowy design.
I suspect it's too lumpy and crude for him, but might have been "inspired by" his works.
I do think we have related jugs. :)
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)

Hello Sue, no striations and no question mark, must admit after taking the picture I thought that looks like a question mark, it's just the light on a scratch that is actually kidney shaped, I'll look up Polish and that other name  ;D ;D
