Hi All

I've had these little pots for a long time but I've never managed to find anything else quite like them in my books or on the internet (9cm tall). Any clues would by gratefully received. :thup:

whoa, lairy colour combo - sunglasses alert!

It looks like some form of cloud glass fwiw.

A bit like cloud glass except that cloud glass in pressed and this pair are cut with large polished pontils to the base.

Thanks for the idea, I hadn't considered Peking Glass - a bit off my radar.

On searching I found the following which is similar in cutting style.
