Could it be by Kingsware?
I read they make swans with rough pontils and bubbles. I've never heard of Kingsware. If anyone has any info or links on them that would be great.
Thank you

I think it may be Lafiore, Spanish glass.

Ooh yes, thank you Rosie, there's two blue ones quite similar, their faces and tails especially. I never would have guessed Lafiore, I have one of their more familiar sand decorated vases. Never knew they made things like this. Thank you:)
