Yes.

Are you familiar with the book by Marcus Newhall ...

SKLO Union: Art Before Industry: 20th Century Czech Pressed Glass Hardcover – 1 Oct 2008 ?

It comes with a CD which includes a number of catalogues. The 1983 cat. for Hermanova Hut (sorry - some accents missing) includes a bowl (Pattern No. 20270) which might be yours. Is your bowl 15 cm in diameter? If not what is the diameter ? There are a couple of other possibilities. It's sometimes difficult to compare a line drawing (catalogue) with a photograph.

For your photo ... it seems that it is a piece by František Pečený.
You can find it if you are looking for it here:
