I would expect Val St Lambert to be marked.  My thought was it could be Japanese.  If it is free of bubbles I would think it likely to be Japanese - and they always seemed to have paper stickers.

I thought this was interesting...  an ebay seller has got a very similar bowl which he/she attributes to 'Sklo Union' : http://cgi.ebay.pl/Sklo-Union-Dreieck-Schale-Modern-Design-Bohemia-60ies-/370240320970?pt=Glas_Kristall&hash=item56340af5ca

I really think not.  :spls:

I think not also. Definitely not Sklo Union, because Sklo Union is always pressed.

I had a very similar bowl to this a while ago, a slightly different design and the contrasting colour was blue rather than amber, but I think it could have been from the same source. The bowl was definitely pressed and the colour seemed to have been fired on. I always suspected it was Walther Driburg.

That would explain my initial impression of the yellow being somehow 'painted' into the glass. :-X  Steven, I think you're right with the Walther Driburg attribution...
