Welcome to the GMB.

Your mark is the leaping salmon mark of Strathearn Glass, Scotland.

Pleased to help.   Three points worth noting:
  • An image of the whole piece is always useful in checking or confirming a makers mark,
  • If you sell the item, please mention the GMB as a source of information, and
  • If possible, please use the ebay selling links you will see on the GMB — the third party commission helps towards the cost of running the GMB.
