Fab pics - thanks so much! :-*
It is the same bowl as the one in my link... however your pictures are fantastic!  You can see from the description I linked to that they do not mention the bowl is optically ribbed for example,whereas one of your pictures shows this clearly  :)

Sometimes knowing something such as the bowl is ribbed (and how many) can help towards id'ing other pieces - it's a tiny bit  irritating that the description on the web isn't complete really (although I am grateful just to have the pictures at all, no mean feat getting that collection photographed and uploaded).
Thanks again - I really really appreciate it.

My new fish bowl (with feet). It's a monster weighing in at  2.7kg.

11 inches in length and 7 inches in height.

Couldn't say for definite but my instinct would say Walsh Walsh.
Very similar to th ebowl on page 172 Victorian Decorative Glass, Gulliver.
Also has similarities with an unidentified epergne on page 195 of the same book.  Again that epergne makes me think Walsh Walsh but there is no id for it.

That book is worth every penny and more to anyone with an interest in Victorian glass.
