Still would like to know roughly when these vases were made.
Thanks again for taking the time to view and give some info.

Thanks Alan, that's one place off the list just a great pile to go 

cant make out signature cane properly , to start with it looked like a P and something else so thought maybe peter holmes but then it looks like an A too depending way you look at it so thought it might be allan scott also looked through both Perthshire paperweights books to see if I could find similar , the bowl has nice vertical faceting around the outside with lampwork flower

Nice vase Anne. I wondered if Lutken or Copier may be possible? An unusual shade of green, the base finish suggests top quality. I wondered if the base wear may hide a small acid etch mark or engraved initials....

Thanks Sue & Greg , I didn't know Strathearn did this shape ! I assumed too much ! One clue is that the button type of pontil mark isn't highly polished ...it's slightly dulled and you can see parallel lines of polishing marks . It has lots of age related scratching to the base though .
