Is it marked because it looks more like something from Sunderland Glass http://lustrousstone.co.uk/cpg/displayimage.php?pid=900

Does look similar,no mark and no pontil mark on mine,moulded base,the reason I suggested R.B'y was because it came from the same place as my recent RB finds,a collector who worked there some years ago.I'll ask the dealer if he knows the sellers name,he might be 'famous'  :o :o ;D ;D

I agree with Christine on this - is your piece satinated, Keith?
The flanged rim looks far too wide for RB.

If I understand 'satinated' then yes, ;D

Then I really would think it is Sunderland, Keith. The satination is very finely done - the glass feels like velvet.
