We would usually associate the fircone patterns with Greener and Co which became Jobling. However. the mould used for this design has multiple differences with that used by Jobling. Furthermore the jade or jadeite glass was developed by Davidsons. this required the addition of felspar to the glass. Production of jade glass ceased in 1928
