Hi
I've seen bowls like this referred to online as Murano but the vast majority of such pieces have never been anywhere near Italy, so some help would be appreciated

A photo of the base is always desirable when asking for attribution.

Personal opinion - highly likely to be Murano c. 1960s to 1970s era.  Maybe a Murano specialist may disagree.

Thanks, ahremck

I thought it looked genuine. The lines / curves, quality of glass, the base...
