apologies in advance as I don't get on too well with doing pics. of clear glass. Is this called a 'thistle' shape - as in thistle flower head? 145mm/5.75 inches tall, with star cut base. I've trawled through a couple of my books re drinking glass shapes, and would appear this outline must be uncommon, might it be a toasting glass? - there actually is a cavity within the bulbous bottom of the bowl, so would hold perhaps a little more than most glasses of this general size. The cutting is good, but nothing too much out of this world, and the glass is not over thin. Perhaps just a decorative piece. However, there is a grey matt wear ring under the base, so I guess maybe some age. Grateful for anyone's ideas, and thanks for looking.
