Hi.. Can anybody help me? I purchased a pink glass bowl today it has 'Afors 2025 Rubin' engraved on the base is Rubin the designer? or does this refer to the colour. Thanks Paul.

Rubin is the colour - I think it means Ruby.
Afors also used  Lila - Lilac, bla - blue, smoki - smoke, guld (for a red made with gold), smaragd - sapphire, gru - grey and brun - brown

and I'm sure there's others I haven't seen
