Just wondering if anyone could help ID this mould blown storage jar. The design looks very Scandinavian with a concentric beaded design reminiscent of Nuutajarvi Kastehelmi and Riihimaki Grapponia. However I have never seen this particular shape before.

The jar retains its original cork stopper which is now looking quite weathered. dimensions are approx 12cm tall by 10cm in diameter.

Thanks in advance

Just a thought, could it be Dartington, Frank Thrower? they used cork stoppers.

Snapped these photos at a bootsale a few weeks ago, ordinary Kastehelmi candle holder at first glance but one of a pair, both with Cascade labels.
