Topic: id request for ruby 'triform' bowl.

[Paul S.]

Very deep rich ruby colour - beautifully ground and polished pontil mark - about 5.5 inches across, and I would hazzard a guess that it has some reasonable age  -  perhaps 30 - 50 years.   I'm thinking possibly Scandi., but that is really only a shot in the dark, and I think the shape is called 'triform'.   Would love to hear from anyone if they have any ideas please, and thanks for looking.  cheers.

I'm probably way off here, but I thought this was possibly Sowerby or Nazeing perhaps
I'm sure this has been on here somewhere before. Modified to add forget that completely, as the base is different, sorry.

thanks to both of you.   Although there are obviously some design differences between my piece and the one shown by Otis, I get the feeling that the 'ribbed' outer surface - the depth of colour and thickness of glass do indicate the same stable.   This ruby is truly stunning, and thanks Chris for the link - I should have remembered something as recent as February
