many thanks neil  - so guess we may never know who actually made the bowl - although in view of your comment about 'importer', then it seems very probable that the bowl may well have been sourced from the Continent  -  and this may also account for the 'dot'.       Although Registration Nos. are not usually seen on Continental pressed glass, it would, as Bernard pointed out, be.............'perfectly natural for a continental European mouldmaker to separate off his thousands that way' ......believing perhaps that was what he was supposed to do. :)

Well, obviously I have led a sheltered life girls - I don't recall seeing a single piece of glass (made on the Continent) showing a No. (aside from this bowl of course ;D)    However, you have now educated me, and I will now spend every waking moment looking for one  :sg: :fc:
