      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.

      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 .
