I'm just sorry it's not Horbowy for you. That would have been worth a bit more and much more exciting.
But it is a very pretty little vintage posy vase.

Hi Sue,
You found an example that answered my questions perfectly:  that it was moulded (I wasn't sure) and a reason why it wasn't stamped, but had a paper label (odd, when the stamp is easy to be included in a mould/and a paper label is always removed leaving no real indication of maker) - assume it was a short-lived decision and they returned to including an impressed mark.

Re: Horbowy, seeing some of his designs, it didn't seem to go, but wasn't sure when he first started.  The sold Polish listing must have been mis-sold - thank you for clearing up the confusion.
As ever, grateful for all the help given, always good to learn something new,
Marie.

It's manually blow moulded, not pressed. I don't think I've seen an impressed mark on something manually blow moulded: there is quite a bit of working after the initial blow

When I was digging around looking at AH bottoms I did find some with a kind of => sort of mark impressed into the bottom. I don't know if it was a mark inside the mould itself or if somebody came along and quickly pressed a tool to it when it was taken from the mould for the further working.
