Does anyone know the name, period of production, designer of this Heron Glass bud vase?

Thanks in advance

It's not in my reference pics or on the last archived version of their website before they closed, so can't help, sorry. We are trying to find more about Heron Glass production, so if I can add more in due course I shall.

I have it up for sale and a potential customer asked for the details. I didn't realise Heron was a conundrum. Do you think there is a chance is it a fake? Maybe I should end the auction?

No, not a conundrum at all, just a no longer trading company which isn't well documented. I'm sure it's right for Heron, I just don't know a pattern name or date. I was discussing Heron Glass with Ray (from Ulverston)  last week and we are going to try and find more image examples and info as they are local to us. In the meanwhile, Amy who is connected to Heron is a member of the board and responds to enquiries when asked, so it might be worth dropping her a line.
