Another newly acquired mystery: 2-tone, Acid-cut, Aesthetic style glass vase

(1/3) > >>

ian the sculptor:
This small, footed vase measures 11 cms tall x 7.5 at top and base. Lead crystal, polished pontil, acid cut raised decoration of fruiting branches and butterflies.
2-tone colour - green  fading down to clear. It's not uranium glass. I wondered about Moser, but couldn't find anything similar anywhere.
Does anyone have any thoughts on maker?

Thanks
Ian

is there a polished pontil mark on the base?

The colour and effect reminds me of Cristallerie Saint-Louis. (possibly also Val St. Lambert maybe but I'd be searching Saint-Louis if it were mine).

ian the sculptor:
I've come across this vase on Saleroom, sold at Fieldings and attributed to Stevens and Williams. Ignoring the attribution for the moment, the design matches my vase: the textured branches, the leaves and even the butterfly appears to be the same.
So I wondered if anyone has any thoughts on the Fieldings vase and whether this might bring us closer to an identification of both?

This satin airtrap vase has remarkably the same decor on it as well I think?

Interesting.  They say about the maker that it's by Stevens and Williams and then saying 'probably finished by Thomas Webb'.  ::)

ian the sculptor:
Yes, same pattern, tree branches and butterfly.  Intriguing. So perhaps I should be looking closer to home. 🤔
