Don't remember seeing that shape before, with the flame mark Kerry is also a possibility if somewhat small I guess. The flame mark is interesting in terms of a date too, the way the colour is arranged reminds me a bit of Petit Fleur.

In other words Chris, clueless here. How tall is it?

TBH John I don't sell anymore but this took my eye especially with that foot if it had not had the stamp on or maybe just a label I would have put it back down thinking it was a later piece.
It's 6" high.

The only other suggestion I can come up with is that it could be something from the makers' shelves at IoWSG. The time period is not in question. :)

Sounds feasible cannot recall seeing anything similar the glass does have a green hue to it.

Thanks Chris. It arrived safe and well.  :D

Now that I have the vase I can see that the base is not ground smooth. With the deeply impressed flame mark it would date from 1974 to 1979, probably earlier than later in this time frame.

Thanks again.
