This is about 28cm tall, relatively weighty, with a really brilliant glaze and clearly showcases a lot of skill. Any help would be massively appreciated :)

Thank you everyone, as always. I feel very close to ID'ing this one. I remember seeing a listing on Ebay a long time ago (screenshot attached) of a vase with the EXACT same mark, much clearer, which I infuriatingly didn't screenshot. The listing is long gone and I'm asking the seller for any archived images. Perhaps this helps, but the glaze is quite different..Hi everyone - any ideas? KK or HH mark?  Screen10

In any case, I remember the mark was one that 'mirrored' in the middle. Kind of like 2 H's or 2 K's, with some curvature - here's a drawing!Hi everyone - any ideas? KK or HH mark?  20231210

N.B. the gaps were much smaller between each, just like my vase

Maybe try a pencil rubbing of the mark

Here you go! On reflection it really seems to be KK rather than what I sketched. Any thoughts much appreciated!

Certainly looks like KK but not one I recognise

Saying that, I've found a listing for a vase with the exact size and shape of this mark. I've been looking for it for ages, see images below! It's very clear to see, and seller is attributing to Karen Karnes. Looking at it now, it's clear as day not a K shape. Do you recognize this maker? If so I think that would solve it.

Are the updates of any help at all? :) Very keen to get to the bottom of this one! There's a maker there with a fair few recorded examples of their work and I'm more and more certain that it's English and not otherwise (just a hunch)

Unfortunately still a mystery. Some can stay mysteries for decades until one turns up with a label
