A faithful reproduction of the Georgian style. We have not been able to find this exact design in the catalogues of early 20th century producers who made known reproductions but it is quite likely this was made at a reputable Stourbridge glasshouse as part of a Georgian revival range. or possibly made to deceive an unfortunate antiques collector this fooled the previous owner when he first began to collect.
