Help please to ID this opalescent floral decorated glass water jug. I would think Victorian in age .

The pattern can be felt in relief on the outside and inside of the jug.
I thinking most likely English but have not ruled out someone like Northwood of the USA .

Height 7.5" or 19cm.
weight 700gm.
Polished pontil.

Thanks Roy

Hi Chris and Keith

Thanks all the glass comes from Sussex and Surrey , when I get time of work which is not very often.

Thanks Keith for adding the picture , the vase does have a similar pattern and I had thought about it being Harrach as I had a similar shaped overshot jug which may have been Harrach. I will have a dig around a bit more.

Thanks Roy
