I have two in blue both marked Thomas Webb England.

They are on the stall so no other photo possible right now, they are just about visible top left in the second photo down, on the top of the odd corner cabinet: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,57879.0.html

Afraid blue is one colour I'm not short of, now amethyst or green would be a different matter... ;D ;D ;D

Keith  -  can you detect any quality difference between those with an S and pieces without  -  irrespective of colour of glass?
I'm coming back to wondering if it did in fact denote a second.

Hello Paul, the green and amethyst are in perfect condition the only difference is that they are half inch shorter, blue height is 7.5 inches, with a 3.25 inch foot and the others are 7 inches high with a 3 inch foot, ??? ;D ;D
