I essentially just call these a bowl/basket. Lovely smooth colours on this one. I noticed a blue and green one of ebay that has similar colours to my Clam Shell bowl listed down in Murano.

Here is the piece I have been watching that is similar (please excuse the sellers ID)...

290398313511

I see these listed every now and then in all countries. I think yours is Murano but as to ID, to hard to determine! I have never seen a labeled piece.  :huh:
