      Hi TKR. Great vase!
      Please post more photos, particularly of the base and lip. Just edit this post and add photos. Even if there is nothing on the base it helps a lot with identification.

      racer sorry about photos they don't seem to work right

      Bit hard to see lol!
      My gut feeling is this is not Murano because of that rolled lip. It's a really well made and finished piece of glass. I'm leaning towrads German for this, possibly Zweisel.
      Very nice glass.

      Thank you for you thoughts on this vase , now I will try to find photos of zweisel vase to compare .

      racer now that you mention the rounded lip I like that better then a flat square top that's seams to be so common, the rounded top creates a nice soft flow .

      I have looked a lot but no comparable vase of Murano or Zweisel or Moser, I guess it will have to be a mystery as to the maker of this vase. its coming from Bulgaria if that's of any help that's why I look at Moser glass .
