Green bowl with bubbles like Nazeing but?
« on: April 07, 2015, 09:30:44 PM »
What type of glass is this bowl? There are small bubbles that you can actually feel on the surface. No marks that I can find.
I love the shape.

Looks a bit like it could be Nazeing with the bubbles and colour, but not sure if that's one of their shapes - whats the pontil scar like?

Hopefully someone will come along with more idea!

The base is completely smooth almost like it's been created in a mould

there are flared, straight sided bowls in Geoff. Timberlake's book, but none that I can see with a profile as low and wide as this one looks to be, and coupled with the apparent complete lack of a pontil scar or depression, makes me suggest this isn't Nazeing.

Before seeing the comments about an absence of pontil, I might have suggested S. & W.  -  based on the colour plus what appear to be rather heavy halos around the bubbles, but now really not sure.       These bubbled pieces can be the devil to id.
See this much earlier thread, which seems to have caused some difference of opinion.........    http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,33957.msg183696.html#msg183696

Nigel B. might be the guy to know, but he so rarely looks in these days.

Would be useful to know the height and diameter, plus a shot of the base, please. :)

apologies - thought that pic was of the inside :-[

have looked again, but nothing that I can in the Nazeing book with those proportions, so regret I'm fresh out of ideas.
