That looks nicely made.  I like the cut thumb area.  Is the rim fire-polished or cut and polished?

Nice example of an abrasive frosted Victorian jug. Not sure of a specific date but it has a top down handle and abrasive frosting. 7 inches tall.

The texture of the frosting looks quite uniform so it’s understandable it might be thought acid frosted but you can see around the handle that this isn’t the case. In the x175 magnification image it is obviously abrasive frosted, probably using a technique similar to that mentioned in a 1861 patent “…ground by means of wet sand or of emery, applied by a brush wheel composed of wire, and revolving in a lathe or in a glass grinders’ frame” see https://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,70868.msg397299.html#msg397299

Thanks, but Blenko won't respond to ID or valuation requests. I suspect they would be overwhelmed with such requests, if they did.

It would be perfect for my ginger beer, which is kind of grey and cloudy. It would make it look much more appetising. 

  Not the same. Got ahead of myself there. Although some similarities in lay out. Target center, divided into quadrants what I see as probable diamond field between the lines . Hard to tell, quite small.
