None of these show traces of the moulding process. The first one being Mother of Pearl but paler and less iridescent than the previous two rose bowls I posted.
The yellow, orange and 'marbled' red ones are cased in clear and are presumably Art Deco. The yellow and orange ones are the same in size and shape. The MoP and the marbled red one are a smaller size but the lobes are very different.
I assume that when the fashion for vivid colours came along glass makers just blew different colours into existing moulds.

Me too, Rick. There's a third plain one in the same red that is the base for the marbled one. I saw one a few months ago and resisted, but regret it now!
