    Came in a mid century lot. Got a middle east vibe but also has an Ikea vibe that disturbs me a little. Been caught before.:( Seem to have gold leaf in the glass. No marks as usual. Anyone seen these before??????
    Data.... both about 26cm round and 0.7Kg

    Doves are a common Israeli decorative motif. Might symbolize Jerusalem. Here's the Hurva mosque in a similar architectural style.

    Slumped glass could be a decorating shop or better than average crafter.

    Yes, I would think a gift shop souvenir. Here's an Israeli plate with similar imagery (but different technique.)

    My first thoughts were Jerusalem and tourist ware so we are pretty much in agreement.:D
