Any help in identifying this bowl would be much appreciated.

It stands 24cm tall to the top of the finial, 16cm wide and weighs 1.3kg

The interior of the bowl and lid has a white casing.

The clear finial and foot have small controlled bubbles.

There is a makers mark on the base.

Thanks

Matt

the foot reminds me of something as does the bubble finial - maybe Ryd (Sweden I think that is)?

or perhaps a bowl I have that is Portuguese - I can't remember the maker at the moment.  It has a bubble foot and is slightly ribbed and something about the pot reminds me of that.

Not much help but perhaps something to go on to research.

Thanks for the input.

The white cased interior is certainly reminiscent of Ryd items and it does appear to be a good quality item.

I guess the key is the mark on the base, but i can't make out what it is.
