Well as I am a frequent user of forums and I AM computer literate, here is the link to the Whitefriars "Is it" section for her bowl.

:D:D:D

I can't get the picture to enlarge. Are ther any colours apart from the blue? Is it streaky or plain? What colour is the clear glass -  bluey, greeny, yellowy? Is there frit in it? Are there bubbles in the glass?

I'm wondering if this is Josefina glass or some other company from Krosno as there is a similar bowl here?
