I think I have seen a photo of this recently, maybe in Hi Sklo Lo Sklo (I do not own a copy) or have I had a glass overload? ::)

It really is well worth it, i think they day i got it through i managed to ID about 9 pieces i had in storage and in my own collection, so the book paid for itself infact more than paid for itself. Marcus Newhalls book is also amazing and goes more into depth and again as soon as i bought i managed to ID  apiece which sold for £120 so well worth getting to if you collect and sell all different types of glass

Oops, sorry about that, maybe I saw an image on ebay....
I will see if anything percolates out of my subconscious.
I promise to censor it before posting!

I saw one of these today for sale and it had a sticker on it, the seller kindly allowed me to photograph it.

So definitely 'Bohemian'.
