Over the top 1960s Murano art glass bowl with cut and pulled rim

There's a lot of glassmaking in this piece.  Whichever angle you look at this from, there's something happening.  It has a ribbed base, vibrant colour, a swirled pattern, and a pulled and patterned rim.  The rim has been snipped with glass shears to produce the design.  It reminds me of brightly coloured tropical shrimps I've seen.  We've seen a lot of bowls similar to this, though never one with this much put into it. - mostly plain colours and without the curled arms.  We believe they are from the 1960s, from one of the major firms which was exporting their product around the world.
