I can see why you thought what you did, but this doesn't look as if it was done with a crizzle technique (plunging the hot glass into cold water to introduce cracks on the surface, which "take up" the melting silver chloride) - this looks more as if it was covered in lots of thin straps of reddy glass trailed onto the surface.
Is it marked?

thanks for looking sue
no it is not marked its the right shape and it looks like a mdina weight without the blue
