I cannot suggest an exact match, but have a look at Simons moulding No: 860A/0001/G. It looks very similar although the colouring is not exactly the same. Another possiblity is a quite close match, but a little larger and this is Simons moulding No: PRAG/0002. 860A/0001/G appears to have been discontinued, but perhaps somebody has an odd length of two lurking in a dark corner of their workshop, if you have a Simons catalogue have a look to see what it looks like. PRAG/0002 appears to be still current and the price looks quite reasonable as well.

I don't have an Ashworth and Thompson catalogue these days, but this seems to me to possibly something like something which could be one of their mouldings. This is just guesswork on my part, it may lead somewhere, or maybe not!

I hope this is helpful.

Well it’s more that I will now be able to tell them the exact moulding isn’t now available but we can find a similar one, not sure if they will go for it, may go for something completely different but I wanted to armed with the knowledge! Thanks again

Also looks a bit like the Portobello range from Lion? They do various colours of this and the black/gold flea market style is very popular. Regards.
