The center is concave. It’s difficult to photograph. The bottom is etch handwritten 5250838. Not positive about the numbers. All comments or ideas welcome. Thank you for looking! :)
    US quarter for size reference.
    At least 2 lbs.

    Geode style bowl. That type of numbering is usually Kosta Boda or Orrefors.

    Yes, Thank you, Wildrose. It does seem to be a lot like the Murano, I think.

    nice bowl INH:) I'm thinking Murano too - check it with a blacklight, sometimes the layers bowls react under the light

    I know sometimes people scratch I.d. Numbers on things for insurance and such. I was thinking maybe that.

    cool INH, now you will have to try it on other pieces of glass and jewelry too:) Can also help you spot repairs/glue on pieces that you can't see.
