This is for a friend who picked it up & its not U.S. I checked Inwald but came up empty so thought maybe Verlys? Any help appreciated, thanks, Ken

Hi Ken, Reminds me of some Etling designs, may be worth looking into.

While you're at it you might want to check barolač as well.

Definitely an Etling pattern. A marked example was sold on ebay a while back (item no. 230974302662). I'm sure it's also shown in one of the reference books -- Cappa or Decelle maybe -- will check when I get back to the office.
I've seen this pattern both as a bowl and in a smaller size as a covered box. I don't know why it would be unmarked though but maybe Choisy-le-Roi continued to issue the design after Etling closed? I also have a blue bowl moulded with grapes which is a known Etling pattern but lacks a mark...

Just wanted to say the assistance from Greg. Ivo & Steven was very much appreciated by Mary from the U.S. glass board (chataboutdg). Thanks to all. Ken

Just an update to say I couldn't find an illustration of this shape in my books, however Decelle, in Opalescenece Le Verre Moulée des Annees 1920-30, does mention an Etling 'Assiette aux eucalyptus' which likely refers to this pattern. He doesn't attribute it to a specific designer, but many of the plant and floral designs produced for Etling were created by Georges Béal.

This one's marked Etling ...
