shows a set of photos from an Ebay auction that claims it to be Whitefriars which frankly I find  :24: :24: :24: :24:.  But, I am prepared to be told I am wrong, and given the appropriate pattern number.

Anyone recognise its true origin?

Pics 9 and 10 appear to have some form of moulded mark but I can't make it out...

I reckon I have seen this shape in a brown/amber shade of glass as well, in the past.

I have to agree with the other posters, this is definitely not Whitefriars

I have a goblet very similar to this style and design - but in turquoise - but it has the same look about it. it was tentatively identified on here as Skruf. possibly a Bengt Edenfalk design, but I have never been able to confirm that.

Was sure when I saw it listed that it was not Whitefriars though !
