Topic: Clear glass bowl fine threading detail, rough pontil mark to base info pls ?

[chriss]

Hi I have an unusual (to me anyway) and quite pretty clear glass bowl with diamond shaped pattern to the clear glass and a fine pinkish/ruby threaded detail to the upper ruffled part of the bowl, with the outer edges of the ruffles being finished off slightly thicker than the rest. It has a broken / rough pontil mark to the base, no markers marks or signatures. Does anyone know anything about it please?
Thanks

Late 19th C and possibly English, less likely Bohemian. I wouldn't like to hazard a guess at a maker but perhaps one of the smaller companies. Is that a folded rim or an applied rim? My similar ones all have polished pontil marks. It's machine threaded.

Hi Lustrousstone
Thanks for your reply. I'm sure it's an applied rim. The pontil mark, I initially took as a broken pontil mark as it's totally uneven central to it where it's recessed and has very sharp areas to the outer edges in one area, so I thought it isn't polished, just coarsely snapped (which coincidentally was recessed :/ ). But looking again, polishing may have happened, though there isn't a lot to polish that would have jutted out in the first place I would have thought?

Looks and sounds snapped to me.
