Hi Keith it is shape V017 on Franks site, it is difficult to tell if it is Vasart or Strathearn. The later Strathearn pieces had a leaping salmon on the pontil mark.

I associate that distemper green more often with Vasart than with Strathearn.  ???

strathearn small pieces like this piece( vases) (maybe pin dishes/shallow bowls were) didnt have a salmon backstamp, so its a toss up between strathearn and vasart as both seemed to use same colourways and shapes, unless you can poss I.D colour enamels/canes . i have seen pieces backstamped which were slightly taller,
