Thanks Paul,
Etling had completely slipped my mind. You could well be right, it certainly has a similar opalescence and general feel to an Etling bowl I've seen recently. I am not so familiar with Etling's figures other than the beautiful Sevin ladies, but I presume they would have made many decorative figures like this.
I think i just assumed Verlys as it put me in mind of the swan figures they made, Etling may well be more likely, I will loook into it further and see if I can find any labels to compare with.
Thanks again,
Steven
