A lovely enameled Rubina Verde (Cranberry to Green shading) bottle form vase. So Victorian. It actually is more captivating in person. There a a few air bubbles in the glass in the foot but does not distract from the overall beauty. Most likely pre 1900.

Fabulous decoration - is it Moser?
Odds are Moser. I have been researching and the enamel work fade of one color to the next appear tell tale Moser.
pretty! IMHO Legras is the strongest candidate. I have found a decor that is almost identical in the book and they did a lot of glass with this coloration. the shape is also typical of them. A lot of Legras has been called Moser over the years. Of course, Harrach made a lot of glass for both Moser and Legras so that could be the source of that.
this would have had a stopper.
WOW! an another WOW! IT IS JUST SOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
