bowl with funny blue tinge! - ID = Sowerby 2505 Iris vase
« on: January 21, 2010, 05:52:53 PM »
I think this bowl is Bagley and on first appearance it looks clear. However, when you hold it to the ligh it has an icy blue tinge all over. Is this a particular colour or technique?
Thanks

It's Sowerby 1933 Iris vase and supposed to be that colour = powder blue

Mod: Another member has said that 1933 is the launch date, not the ID number, which is #2505
