This is a nicely made piece that glows like crazy under my UV lamp.   It looks good quality English, but I've not come across the name Lund's before.   An internet search yields a variety of possibilities, none of which leaps out as an obvious solution.   Is this perhaps a shipping line / hotel group?

Enlightenment sought, please.

Perhaps a retailer

Christine — Thanks, but 1856 and c.1825 are a trifle early for something I wouldn't date earlier than about 1930, although from the absence of wear it could have been made yesterday.   Lund seems to be a fairly common Scandinavian name, so I am hopeful that someone will recognise my description of the mark with its slightly swelling and shrinking lettering.

It may or may not be useful Bernard, but this page mentions Lund's pottery/porcelain a couple of times  along with glassworks in the Bristol area: http://www.kalendar.demon.co.uk/references.htm
