‘Very Strange Piece of Blown Layered Glass No Idea Where to start researching. This is very odd. It is about 9” tall and 11” across. I just don’t even know where to start looking. Thanks!

Perhaps nason from the fifties?  They did a popular range of inverted opalina, so outside white.

I think it's an odd shape for a lid and too deep (inverted) really?
Could it also possibly be from Empoli?
