Featured Cut Crystal Bowl - Antique?

I'm not that familiar with cut glass.
I think there's a facebook group for cut glass and these online resources:
https://www.brilliantglass.com/
https://cutglass.org/

 

Thanks for these links. I will go explore!

 

The amount of refraction in some of the photos makes me wonder if this is crystal rather than plain glass.



Is it quite heavy?

 

Based on one of the surnames in my family tree, I probably have forebears who had that as a sideline.

 

Yes. Two pounds 10 ounces for a small bowl that is 3 inches high and 8 inches wide with a lot of the glass cut away. It makes lots of rainbows in the sunshine, so I agree it is crystal.

 

A common Transylvanian name or Dracula, in particular?

 

Phlebotomiski.

 

......

 

Laughing at Kiko ....

 

First name Vlad?

 

Ah yes, that famous gazelle. Vlad the Impala.

 

You made that up.

 

She won't tell us her first name.

 

You are confusing me. I thought an Impala was a Chevy. Or maybe that's just the blood loss.

 

May have found it here:

Compared your from-above image with theirs. Except for bottom pattern it's very close.

 

Or even more closely, this one (it's larger than yours), patterns is a match:

Caveat: I am NOT the seller of these, so pl. no comments about too many links, thank you!

 

Never.

Ditto.

 

Thank you so much for tracking this down. I will search Libby patterns then!

 

You’re right. This is even closer but no information. You can’t give me too many links
