That's the Stonier mark, not a second mark. Standards have risen with people's expectations

Looks like a Webb second mark, we need to see the whole glass to see if it has any faults, bubbles distortion unevenness problems with bowl stem and base size.

Assume, Chris, that you're referring to the op's mark, and not David's, which as Christine has said is definitely Stonier.            The confusion is probably mine for having said the op's was possibly Stonier  -  I had some notion that I'd seen some older Stuart pieces without the = either side, but I may have been mistaken.       I suspect that this type of stand alone S on a modern piece probably does indicate a 'second'.

Yes Christine has yet to be wrong about anything.
