Huge glass bowl Scandi?? help please
« on: April 09, 2007, 03:18:05 PM »
OK this bowl is 8.5" tall and weighs a mighty 3kg. It has a flat polished base that has a lot of wear. I wondered if it might be Scandinavian as the band pattern reminds me a little of Flygsfors. Any help appreciated.

I would think it is a bit too heavyhanded to be Scandinavian, so I vote Polish. Flygsfors would have been signed and is a lot more elegant. The colour combo is also a bit strong for the nordic taste.
