A substantial press-moulded flint glass pedestal vase with the registry date lozenge for 7 January 1881 - Parcel 15. Decorated with a pair of heads depicting an Indian elephant. Measures 24cm tall, with a base diameter of 13.5cm and a top rim diameter of 13cm . The design representation reveals that it appears to be missing its lid/cover.
RD 360487, registered by Jonas Defries and Sons , 147 Houndsditch, City, London.

There is no record of Defries having a glass works, so I imagine that the manufacture of the vase was subcontracted out (though I have no idea to whom).
