old glassware piece found

[Moe (fl)]

Found this piece of blue glass at the beach.

Perhaps was part of a cup. It looks old.

Any ideas?

Its looks like a cobalt blue glass vase or bowl.

Judging by the pictures, it looks like Depression Glass, which would be circa 1929-to early 1930's. Breezie

Maybe something like this but smaller:

to me it appears to be part of a drinking glass of the same basic design and type as the bowl in the e bay ad.

Maybe Fire King or Anchor Hocking?

aurora pattern? http://www.bglances.com/depression.htm

looks like a bit from the "aurora pattern" type coffee cup -- big cy I think has got the pattern --or very close to it.

The piece seems too thick to be a glass. More likely part of the base of a bowl. The pattern lines are more rounded than the ebay pics.
