unlikely, since this is produced by pressing the glass into a mould.           Will you please hold this up to good daylight please and tell us if you can see any degree of 'sunset glow' through the glass.

I don't believe it does. The swirls or variation in the glass can be seen here on the base...

I have over 20 pics of various Burtles Tate swans and none of them are opaque white / milk glass. There was a white opalescent one.

we don't seem to be getting any opalescence with this piece?
