    I found this on my favourite Market Stall this morning, in the £1 section! It's very thick glass, I thought it may be china at first it was so opaque, but then when I held it up to the light it glowed dark pink. It is very iridescent and has a splatter of lovely blues and greens, and is hand blown with a slightly rough pontil mark. I have no idea of where it was made or who made it. Any ideas?

      Thank you Rose, very interesting and very true as it is not black at all when held up to the light!
