Where to find a cobalt blue glass...

    I broke one of my girlfriend's prized posessions the other day and have been wrecking my head trying to figure out how I can replace it (it doesn't hold any sentimental value at all, she just really really really liked it)

    My descriptive skills aren't great, so I'll just attach an image of the closest thing I've found (ebay link below too)
    It looked pretty much identical to the attached pic, but the thing is, the dimensions of the ebay item (21.5cm high) seem way off compared to the one I broke... If anything I'd say it was about half that size with extremely thin glass (felt like it would shatter in my hands every time I washed it up!)

    Anybody got any ideas on what I can try searching for instead of "cobalt blue glass", or better still, any suggestions on where else I can try looking?

    If you search under "Bristol Blue" you might find something. There is one listed on ebay uk #230452406824.
