The blue and the shape look very like Sea Glasbruk, when they were being influenced by Flygsfors and the Coquille line, which corresponds with wear on the base. Is it quite heavy?

I dislike not agreeing with Ivo (it usually means I'm wrong), but the weight and wear makes me think it is older than Ikea, possibly Scandinavian, perhaps Sea. But I think it's very hard to pin down a bowl like this as they were made by quite a few companies, including some on Murano. That doesn't mean it isn't a nice piece, though.
