I rather suspect it could well be, too.

Glass / Re: Amethyst, mould blown bowl.

My first thought was that it has some resemblance to a fabby pale blue Powell piece Christine had, which was rather more fancy, the Mount Jerzin. It's got the right sort of "soft" diamond moulding.

Glass / Amethyst, mould blown bowl.
« Last post by essi on Today at 10:05:12 AM »Quite an unassuming looking bowl but seems to have a bit of quality about it .
Nice polished pontil and a decent bit of wear on the base.
Lovely lead crystal ring to it when flicked.
I am at a loss to know what era to place it in or who manufactured it.
It is 95mm tall and 120mm diameter at its widest.
Non UV.

In marble, the colours are all really in one layer, flat on the surface, the brown is duller, the yellow is paler, creamier and speckled.I suspect the diference is the use of silver chloride in Tiger which was changed to silver nitrate for creating the appearance of Marble.
The frosting would be a clue to it coming from the time after Marble was introduced.

Thank you Ekimp for the reply agreed it could be said that the people might look slightly Egyptiancertainly gathering for either food or housing material possibly life at the time of manufacturing, I did see a couple
of tumblers on Scottish antiques of similar make quite stiff prices as well that is good as it was not cheap to me.
Happy to have something of such an age it always makes me feel good buying old glass
