About 6 inches high,broken pontil mark with moulded 'fish scale' pattern,thought it may have been Stourbridge but since I've been on the GMB I'm not so sure!Keith.

It's almost certainly uranium and has an airtrap pattern that creates the fish scales. Can we see the base please. I'm veering towards Bohemia, simply because it looks like it's trying to be all things to all people
