    This glass bowl is about 5" in diameter x 2" high and weighs 1 lb 8 ounces. Not marked, lots of wear to the bottom, which was ground flat and polished. There is some debris in the glass, most notably some silver foil, and also a few small bubbles. Heavy, lots of interesting texture, no idea who made this, when or where.

    Probably started life as a small ashtray but there are no depressions in the top rim for resting a cigarette on.

      Possibly Murano, kivatinitz! I have not been able to find anything similar to this ashtray/bowl. Thanks for your comment!
