Large - Twin gold swirl - transp. blue central form ID: ?
« on: December 31, 2014, 01:19:25 PM »
Another unknown in the collection. 
Rather large @ 95mm diameter.
High clarity sphere with two gold flake swirls around a twisted transparent blue form with core bubble.
Ground base with remnant of paper sticker, may have been a diamond shape from what I can make out of the residual adhesive.... that is a 'may'.
No signature.

Any ideas most appreciated.
So it goes.

Matte base, most likely Chinese

Thanks for that likely ID.
Second photo has reflection of my kitchen fly mesh.
Only posted because it showed degree of grind polish/finish.

It's a nice looking large and well made piece... very clear and pretty. 
I haven't seen pattern like it from usual Chinese vendors at Australian market places.

One to add to the 'China - Taiwan' image gallery on this board perhaps.   
So it goes.
