Can anyone identify this please
« on: September 08, 2008, 08:30:25 PM »
It is 10 inches high, weighs 1785 grams. The base is smooth polished and it has a green tinge when you look at it. This belongs to a friend of my sister and they seem to think it is quite old. Thanks, Sue

Can't be sure from your photo but if it's the type of glass I'm thinking of then ZBS (Czech) is a strong possibility.
However, their colours are usually quite bright and strong as per the green in this pic of Terry's collection.

The dish on top row far right has the same sort of hot worked squiggly decor, possibly also the lavender (neo) vase below it. I have a better pic of the dish somewhere...
Ah this yellow vase shows it

but the decor on yours looks sharper and more protuding ...is it ?

Perhaps these pics of the dish will help you to decide it they are a match too..
