always annoying to find the details of a pattern after the event ...............  but better late than never, and have now found the following entry - with picture on page 44  - in 'BRITISH GLASS between the wars' -  an exhibition catalogue edited by Roger Dodsworth in 1987 for a display at Broadfield House Glass Museum 13th June  -  31 August 1987.

The entry reads ...............   item No. 165 - Vase - Sowerby, Gateshead c. 1936
                                          Amber Glass, triangular shape, moulded with floral pattern and art deco sunbursts, the floral parts with acid satin finish.
                                          Marked 'RGD No. 799041' for 1934.              Height:  7.5" (19 cm)                     Private Collection.
                                          Illustrated in 1936 Sowerby Catalogue, pattern entitled Daisy.                    Made in flint, green, rosalin, amber and blue.

So  -  'daisy' it seems to be.  ;D

Just had another look at Glen and Stephen Thistlewood's CD No. 2 (GEORGE V TO ELIZABETH II) catalogue for Sowerby, but there doesn't appear to be a catalogue specifically for 1936 listed. Anyway, no matter, we've now done this one to death and all available details now extracted for this thread.
