This rose bowl is between red and orange. It has a red/orange inner layer and a clear outer layer. The black (amethyst) spatter is on top of the clear layer and so it has texture.
Though bigger, all three have eight lobes and a tiny groove around each lobe.
Height 11 cm./ 4.25 inches Diameter 13 cm./5 inches

Thank you sooo much Alan.
This one just punches the others out! Sorry Peggy, it's too much and has overcome the others.....
I too love the red one Peggy... lovely color! Nice pics too!!
Hi Karen, hmm, I'd have a sneaky bet on the blue one fighting back....
Glad you like it Lisa. I think mostly the shape's called lobed.
Hi Rick, thanks for the pics comment too!
To the kind people who clicked on 'love it'.....thank you so very much.
lobe, n. a broad, esp. rounded, segmental division......
lobed, adj, having a lobe or lobes....
Chambers Dictionary, 12th edition 2011
lobe, n. any rounded projection forming part of a larger structure.....
Collins Dictionary, 7th edition 2008
This word is used to describe a specific shape, is appropriate in this instance and does it succinctly too.
Just for a little additional clarification:
According to Websters:
Lobe: : a curved or rounded part of something (such as a leaf or a part of the body)
Websters Medical Dictionary:
Medical Definition of LOBE. : a curved or rounded projection or division: as a : a more or less rounded projection of a body organ or part <the lobe of the ear> b : a division of a body organ (as the brain, lungs, or liver) marked off by a fissure on the surface.
"Lobed is more about the rims -usually."
Actually, my experience is that "Scalloped" is generally more about the rim.
As applicable to glass...
Scallop: : one of a series of similar curves that form a decorative edge on something.
Thanks for the clarification.
Great glass!

The Gourd as a Daoist (Taoist) Symbol
In Daoism (Taoism), the gourd shape is taken to represent heaven and earth with an extended meaning representing the entire universe.
Within the gourd there is a mystical zone in the form of an alternate universe or the entrance to another world, and Daoist immortals and practitioners can travel between these two worlds.
Because of this association, the bottle gourd has long been a Chinese symbol of self-containment and self-sufficiency. Old Chinese fables sometimes describe a person accidentally coming upon a small, narrow opening in the mountains and entering into a mystical or fairy world where people enjoy peace and long and happy lives.
This same physical characteristic of the gourd carries over into the traditional Chinese garden where a person enters an enclosed but spacious compound through a small opening or gate.

Very interesting - thanks for the background on the gourd shape, inky!
What exactly is your point ruckklczglass? Is it that some people use a different term for what is most commonly called a lobed vases?? You corrected Peggy's terminology like it was incorrect..... and it is not.... and that is a plain and simple fact.
I can find hundreds of examples showing Powolny Tango for Loetz, and they are almost without exception, wrong.
Here is a google search of "lobed vase" though... in a wide variety of shapes with all kinds of lobes.
https://www.google.com/search?q=lobed+vase&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjG4oSN5MLJAhVMxGMKHf2yD0QQsAQIHA&biw=1390&bih=750
And another one showing gourd shaped vases.
https://www.google.com/search?q=gourd+shaped+vase&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwic48Pk5MLJAhUBRWMKHSs8AGYQsAQIHA&biw=1390&bih=750
A quick review of the images would seemingly indicate which term is far more commonly used for which design.
Your application of your term on someone else's post may not seem offensive to you, but to many it actually appears "corrective"... especially when you continue to try to prove it to be applicable.
You could have simply let it be without ever indicating there was a different term. On your post, use your terms. Peggy's post, Peggy's terminology.... It was after all quite correct......
Peggy responded with a definition out of a dictionary. You responded with your paraphrase from Websters, which turns out to be the "medical definition" as applied by them... and you clearly stated "Webster's says as usually applied to a bodily organ - not a jar or vase.... ". I might mention that Webster never said what it did not apply to in their definitions, either the medical one or the plain old definition. You stated that......
Peggy responded with an additional definition from a different dictionary and your response was "OMG - youre(sic) right youre(sic) right youre(sic) right. OK." The implied meaning of that emphatic statement is that she was "wrong" and you were trying to correct her, but you acquiesced.
PS, What my Gourd shaped Google search does not show, is a lobed form like the one in this post. Additionally, most of the lobed examples in a gourd shape, seem to actually resemble types of vegetable gourds... in more concise and descriptive terms, lobed gourds, as opposed to smooth gourds, long necked gourds, or double gourds.
"I felt I had put an end to this seemingly endless topic yesterday."
Seriously?? And the 8 examples posted two hours ago (17 hours after the last comment by anyone) to try to strengthen your position were solely for our enjoyment and edification?? Or for yours to to "seemingly attempt to finally end" the "seemingly endless topic".
I understand perfectly.
Always a pleasure Lisa.... :-)
