Scottish Glass, or cellophane?
« on: April 13, 2010, 08:06:48 PM »
I recently bought this bowl, thinking it might be Scottish, but I have just been reading threads on cellophane glass, so now I am not at all sure.  Can anyone help?

It is very big and heavy at 9 inches diameter and 3.75 inches tall.

As yet, maker unknown, but i like the colours of your bowl, very attractive.
