I wonder if it might be Lewis Wilson. I googled him and found he makes beads and glass sculptures. So maybe? This bottle wouldn't be typical for him. I couldn't find his signature.

Found a small piece Lewis Wilson signed. It was just a big W and a date. So probably not him.

yes with regards William Walker there are some differences, however also similarities, and there are some similarities with the decor technique used. Although against is the fact that the base is different, however looking at the few pieces available on the board the base is not always finished in the same way I don't think  :-\
here's another to compare

Are you based in the UK as sometimes where you bought the piece can give a good lead.

I reckon this is a perfume from the USA.  It is very like a blurry hearts and vines piece.  The signature is where I would expect for an American item as well.  I wondered if the second name was "Gilham" or something close.

It would be much appreciated if you could please upload your photos of the scent bottle to the actual board rather than just linking them.  If the links disappear the thread becomes useless in terms of helping others in the future without the pictures.   Many thanks  :sun:
Yeah, i will sort that out. prob need to do a bit of resizing 1st. That's why i used photobucket, the pics are 3mb each :(

As for location, yes i'm in the Midlands area of the UK. The bottle was bought at a Nottinghamshire car boot sale along with a David Wallace bottle, i don't think there is any connection between the two however.

No photos available to view any more as they were all hosted outside the board.
