I could well be wrong, but this doesn't look like Whitefriars to me at all, not just because of the colour and shape, but because the bubble grid is too fine and even.

Its a nice little bowl. Id be thinking Scandinavian, Murano, or possibly with those colours, Czech ?

I hope that narrows it down!  :rn:

Good luck,
Andy

Very like Murano, Seguso, even. I'm guessing that the colour in the rim is a little stronger in the photo that in the piece itself. The combination of colours is typical. Nice little piece.
