There have been a few pieces of the same origins as the pink bubbly thing - if it has a shiny and rainbowy lustred outside - the shapes are becoming familiar - this is one of tham, but in general, they're just very distinctive. I don't think we know much more that Romanian origin though - I think it was Ivo confirmed this origin. I've got 3 bits.

Thanks, Michael. It's great having visual confirmation. I can't quite read the text so I'll have to check CGR to see if it confirms Jindrich's take on the designer of and of the tartan. (The last part is a joke.)
