Here is another piece to the puzzle. She who is cleverer than I has been on a search and turned up the following page of Colin Heaney works with what appear to be sand-carved patterns. These items are in the series he called Vitrolith, and are considerably more modern than the iridescent piece with which I started this thread.

Our own much more modest pieces of Heaney Vitrolith were shown earlier on the GMB here:

Thanks again, m, for your contributions to the ingredients - and for stirring the pot!

Some of those pieces have patterns that are very much in a similar design theme to your 'boule de escalier'
