Also yes the photographs. The Corning has one which is not lit iirc but it's still hard to discern what the colour is really like. It's quite difficult to compare colour unless seeing comparisons in real life I think.
Thank you for that Cagney. So info so far on the V&A bowl - it's lead uranium glass, and apparently produced by Davenports at very short notice to supply for the Coronation banquet held at Guildhall in November 1837.
