the piece at the bottom of page large bowl vase form

The winged bowl at the bottom looks like a Barbini design. This is the first time I've seen the colors, but the form looks like Barbini. The bowl is documented in Pina's Italian Glass Century 20.

The Barbini bowl comes in different sizes from big to huge. I think the one that you and johnphillip mentioned is the largest one.

have a guesstimated value

[TxSilver]

Value is a tough question. The value depends so much on the size and decoration. The 18" bowl in Pina's Italian Glass Century 20 is orange outside with gold and white inside -- a desirable color combination for these bowls. She values it (1990s) at $300-400 US. You may be able to find a few more of these bowls if you look around the web, but it will give some idea of their value.
