    Its something like a logo but not printed by litho or screen printing. It could be a 'rubber' stamp of some sort, but not sure what on as there is a strong light reflection there. Maybe it is something like printing on a light bulb - I think those 'v's are representing 'e's and there is something in the back of my mind about a firm that uses that.

    I thought it was like the markings on china or porcelain.

    Yes! what i was trying to say was that it was a stamp rather than any other kind of printing. Lord the auld brain is getting very rusty.

    Nobody has gotten it yet.

    Hint: Although the photo shows a slightly green background, it has a white background.
    It's smaller then any of the objects in the answers so far, but most of you will have handled this object in the past year, some of you many times ...

    Slightly green???? It's pure green. What colour are the letters in real life?

    This one seems to be stuck !, if the background is white then it has the shine of china or porcelain but the size part throws me.....I googled ZVV and it came up as a German Train....I'm presuming its not a German train is it :rolleyes:

    Methinks another clue needed

    I thought at first that it might be X and Y chromosomes! but it seems to be the letters X Y Z. I would guess that it is greatly magnified dots (possibly a dotted line or arc) and could be red in colour.

    I am still seeing woven fabric with a length of elastic or similar, over it. :confused: (even though I just did a reverse search on google images...and yes there are lots of creatures made of woven fabric and elastic...)

    Not saying too much here as it is not a 'go' at anybody but as you can see by the OP it is not an object based quiz, just a quiz with pictures :)
