This cute little Portieux salt is very handily marked  ;) but to look at it you would think it was plastic. It's uranium glass in pale green milk glass but with a pearlised appearance. I haven't seen anything quite like it before, it really does look like plastic; perhaps something that should have an Avon bath cube in it!  :o

Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.

You're right thank you Pamela.  ;D I hadn't actually looked for the pattern, I was just fascinated by the pearlised effect. This piece of yours looks the nearest in colour http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/deckeldosen/02526.html

I feel ashamed, Christine, it's  not photographed, but NORMAND in any case, I would say
