This crystal covered bowl is 4" high x 5" in diameter. I had a bit of trouble sorting out the label that I found on a similar bowl so posting a link and data from that site about this maker, Sklarny Bohemia. Not sure how long they made this bowl so mine could pre or post date this label.

"The history of the Bohemia Crystal brand dates back to 1876, when brothers Jan and Augustin Gerhardt founded a glassworks in Podebrady. It was the first modern glassworks in Central Bohemia. In 1920-1927, the production of lead crystal was developed, which gained the company a good reputation all over the world and is still produced in the glassworks today. The glassworks were nationalised in 1946 and extensively modernised by 1950. In 1965, all lead crystal producers in Bohemia and Moravia, including Podebrady, were merged into the company Sklárny Bohemia Podebrady (later Crystalex a. s.). On 1 December 1993 the glassworks were privatised and became Sklárny BOHEMIA a. s. "

Love the 24% lead cystal. I bought two cobalt blue bowls from the Hudsons Bay company in 1983 with similar tags on them. Gorgeous piece !~
