Hi smokerstill.
                    I have looked all the way though the Whitefriars Glass book, James Powell & Sons Of London. but can not find any ref, to this vase also i noticed the pontil looks a bit rough not polished.

also went though Whitefriars Glass the art of James Powell & Sons by Lesley Jackson. no ref.

You could always post this on http://www.whitefriars.com and at the same time look though their catalogues
will keep looking and let you know if i find anything,
                                                                                                                                               Steve


PS i see aj you have already posted on WF .com

Alice, for a start you can check out some of us in the Rogues Gallery here: http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/thumbnails.php?album=100 - and add yourself of course.  :P

GlassGallery is the dedicated image hosting service for this board, and has loads of fab pics to drool over if you have a few spare hours!  8)
