Pretty Little Frilly Rim enamel pink cased brides bowl??

Not really sure about this piece it seem's to have the look of Victorian glass produced by a number of companies from the UK & USA although i don't have a clue where is more like to have come from maybe somebody will be able to see from my pictures of the enamel etc? Nice polished pontil scar to base i have seen similar described as brides bowls??? An unusual term i have not come across maybe something to do with this piece? Thank you for looking.
Seems a well made heavy item 6.5"L X 31/4"D X 3"T

A bride's bowl usually comes in a metal frame. It is also I suspect a made-up US collectors' term rather than a catalogue term. My guess would be Bohemian rather than English or US and not a bride's bowl

I'd agree with Bohemian.
Possibly c.1890s.

Thank you for your replies done some more looking and i think the frilly rim and enamel work does seem to indicate a bohemian attribution also for me too.
