Topic: Cloudy green vase

[JOK]

I just found this green cloudy vase and I was wondering who might have made it. The glass is very thin, about 2mm at the rim (like Nazeing?), but the pontil is neatly ground like a whitefriars piece. The shape is not recognisable as Whitefriars, but looks a bit similar to Monart (except the mouth has a more angular flare). It measures 13cm in height and 11cm at the mouth. The inside surface is textured, whilst the outside is smooth (as though it has been cased - in the same coloured glass).

Does anyone have any idea who made it?

Hi
Welcome to G.M.B.
In my opinion definitely not a Monart piece, there is no shape in the Monart catalogues like your vase.Sorry I can't help anymore.

Hello,

Welcome to the GMB

I'm afraid that, to date, no-one has managed to put an attribution to these pieces. They turn up in a number of shapes in this colour way, but the majority of those shapes are not attributable to any manufacturer, even if one or two within the range might be similar!

Not Ysart, Powell, Nazeing or Gray-Stan.

They were around in the 80s and often with signs of age so 20s-60s is as likely as not.
