Hi
Any thoughts re this one?
Has a lot of wear on its base - also bubbles and internal ribs.
Its pontil mark has been ground and polished.
I haven’t been able to find another like it.
It’s 13cm ( 5” ) high.
Any help in identifying it appreciated - thanks for looking.

Possibly English and Victorian in date but see what others think about it.

Nearly cross-posting!
I was going to say I associate that sort of "wave" form of rigaree with older English glass. :)

Hi,
Come to think of it, it does look old-ish English, especially with that rigaree.
I’ve had a look through Charles Hajdamach’s British 20th Century Glass book and the only piece I managed to find which was something like it, was one of Hailwood & Ackroyd’s vases ( page 141 ) - blue and with a similar sort of
base/foot.
I understand however that H & A marked their glass ....................
Many thanks for your replies- old English possibly Victorian it is :)
