Thank very much for reply. I had seen the other post, but it didn't lead me to anything, although I haven't tried looking for 'sail boat' as a member had suggested. So I'll do some more research! Thanks again

Hi Othnin, welcome to CW!
Glad to meet another searcher for this mark :-))

Seems there is a connection with the Parisian Diamond Company, see the link in Tigra's above comment.
Years of mystery for me...
Just found this silver paste item on eBay with the silver hall mark '900' and the 'amphora'? Still don't know where this mark is from though, but very keen to find out!

Yep, part of my collection now :-)
As I said in my posts about my searches of this mark/maker, there were many, many, many pieces with this « urn », dating from 1890’s to around 1910, all with these gorgeous sparkling pastes. Incredible it is still not identified :-/
Othnin!
See there for identification of the maker:
