Can anyone tell me if this is Heron Glass please?
« on: December 10, 2020, 07:39:15 PM »
I thought this might be Heron glass but I can't find anything with a similar rim and the Heron glass I have had in the pass is much thinner. Any help much appreciated.

Would agree with Keith, even though the shape is a little unusual for Heron I think the finish is absolutely spot on. This big pink bowl was pretty chunky, especially towards the base. Had forgotten about the purple vase, maybe another shape that is not seen so often.

A green example of that big bowl on Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/327777679108376068/

I think it looks very much like Heron. I have a golden yellow Heron bowl and it's seriously thick and chunky http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,37791.0.html.
