This recently found interesting vase may be attributed to Harrach based on architectural details that match signed examples. Cased glass, fire polished rim, ground and polished pontil. The outer layer shades from light brown at the base to a darker brown up the neck to the rim. The layers can easily be seen in the second photo along the rim. The interior pinkish layer can also be seen where the pontil has been ground away. The last photo shows this vase alongside two other signed examples that have the same characteristic four lobes with a quarter twist.

Well, yes, then there's that :)
I also have this one which I think is actually the same glass but it's a much taller form factor so the color is a little different. more pink. It looks more like a ripe peach than any peachblow I've ever seen.

There was one with the same decor but a different glass in one of jitka's museums. it was one of those dayum.. decors really were used on glass from different companies, moments for me. . I guess that means this pattern was either consigned from a number of different glass houses or it was one of the decorating houses that bought blanks. the p number is a decor number so I am thinking it's a consignment thing.
Seriously, it sucks to see how complicated it all is. LOL. It's like there is no hope for ever really truly understanding this crazy hobby. :)
(when I say one of jitka's museums, I meant to say that the glass with the same decor was Kralik)
