    Inherited from my parents who collected carnival and other types of glass. I'm not sure of this one because of its raised pressed glass-like texture. It seems iridescent, but I'm not sure because the raised pattern seems to obscure reflection. The bottom green base circle seems iridescent. If it is carnival glass, is this an unusual piece? Its not like any of the others I received. Would like to know your thoughts. Thanks.

      It's a pretty bowl with nice pattern, the photos are a bit dark to determine the color & whether carnival, maybe add a brighter picture (you're allowed four)
