Topic: Who do you think made this pressed glass ink well?

I am sure it has no value, but I am curious regarding the maker of this British inkwell. 

The word "England" is just about visible near the hinge (but not in these photos).

Any suggestions welcome.

TIA

A bit of a stab but i would guess not uk by the yellowish glass clarity!

not uk by the yellowish glass clarity

That's not necessarily true. There's some pretty ropey UK glass out there. I think most of the colour is from the background - a plain black one would be better.

The inkwell may not be all-British, although the fittings are. Glass to go with metal fittings was not necessarily sourced from the same country. For example i know of a cakestand with Sowerby glass plates and US fittings. It's in the US.

Thanks for your considerations.

The glass colour is as per photos.
