Hello

Any ideas re manufacturer and year appreciated.  Two and a half inches tall and five inches end to end.

Thanks,

I would say it looks very much like Henry Greener , c1890, I am not near any of my books at present, I think it is more often seen in blue pearline

Oh well that will please my rather sickly other half.  Thank you very much for replying Roy!  We would very much appreciate it if you do manage to find a more certain ID, all in good time of course.

Emma I have just been through old pictures on my photobucket and would confirm Henry Greener c1890/1900, they are quite common in blue pearline

We had seen Davidson's versions of those before but not Greener's, so that's very interesting. 

Great to have a positive ID - thanks very much, Roy.  £1.50 from local charity shop cannot be bad either!
