I hope it helped, it's pretty much a guess. I think Ironlord is the knowledgeable glass person here

     The only thing I know about Wheaton glass thus far is they are known for Decanters and Pharm...?   Medicine bottles.  They also made president bottle collection.  It is possible they made ashtrays too.  Guess I'll have to snoop a bit on that.  I would guess that this would be part of a astrology series and the  fishes are Picies (the fish)  having problem spelling right now, just shaking off a Nap  :o.
