They made several changes on that range and others  , the glass and the way they were made is all I was saying the ones that were to become lamps were probably different again . They were constantly changing things to keep the cost down as the competition got harder so if they found a way to reduce costs bingo . They still went bust .

By coincidence handled another of these vases today, in lead crystal rather than soda glass, the difference in weight is striking. The crystal variant was quite a bit thicker walled too and of course had a polished pontil mark.
