I have seen lots of unmarked ruby and cranberry vases of this shape, but never one before with a mark, can anyone help to identify this manufacturer please?
The vase is at:

It wasn't that easy to photograph so I hope the pic is high enough resolution. If not, please let me know and I'll try to get a better one.

Yes, that is the mark for Anchor Hocking. You have it pictured upside down.
The vase is from the Royal Ruby line. There was a thread on these vases here several months ago. I am traveling again so can't give more details but i am sure other members can.

Answer for the Anchor Hocking vase in Ruby,The mark is for THE ANCHOR HOCKING GLASS CO. of Lancaster,Ohio, USA. Factory- 1906> present. The mark you show is from pieces dated between 1937-77. I have several pieces of Anchor Hocking,one which is the twin of yours!
Hope this helps
Best wishes from Urchin.
