This "Let Glasgow Flourish" stone ball at the corner of Argyle Street and Oswald Street appears to be a kugel http://www.kugel.com/ The bar is part of the Radisson SAS hotel on Argyle Street. The kugel can be seen in this photo of the hotel Image

Built in 2002, this hotel has fast become one of the most recognised in Glasgow. It's cheaper than I expected too, with rooms starting from £110 per night for two people.
