    For a small piece it does pack quite a punch! Simple design but the high uranium content makes it glow without using a blacklight. Probably mould blown to create the ribs and small bubble-like projections on the outer surface. The top is interesting because of the colour and how it was distinctively 'star' crimped which I think was a common Bohemian technique. I have some other bowls which also utilize this specific design element. The pink colour tone has also been used on some of my other pieces as well, which I know have their origins in Bohemia. It has also a small pedestal foot and there is a partially ground pontil. Height is just under 9 cms and it's 10 cms across the top.

      Green & pink are my favourite glass colours, I love it!!

      Chenry01, I agree that the contrast between those two colours on this little gem are very striking and effective. I'm glad you like it.
