This is an optically molded "Straw" tankard. Elfverson pattern number E.443. Designed by Hugh Dunne Cooke or Gerda Stromberg in the 1930s.

As per the Elfverson catalogue this is the half pint tankard. They do come in pint and pint and a half sizes too.

Like most of the vases this tankard, and the others here, has six vertical optical panels.
