I've been researching this vase for weeks and I suspect that it was designed by Jan Sylwester Drost for the Zabkowice glassworks in Dabrowa Gornicza in the 1960s. All depictions of the "OKULUS" vases have shown the same peanut-shell-like indentations with straight up and down lines through the pattern. This vase has swaggy horizontal short lines in the designs. Is this a variant of the Okulus line or is it from another glassmaker and company. I haven't been able to find another one in weeks of researching. Thanks for the help. RER
I don't think this vase has a lot to do with 'oculuc' and its regularity as you can see in my post :https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/155188-pressed-glass-vase.
There's a Drost's vase called 'bark' ('pieniek') as others made by Ingrid,Whitefriers etc.

I saw Oberglas bark vase with horizontal lines,maybe you should try there.
Thanks Ivonne! I looked up both the Whitefriars vase and the Oberglas site and none of their glass vases looked like this Cylindrical vase. I have uploaded better photos to show the indentations and lines better on this yellow Vase. BOB

What do you think about examining Sklo Union glass? This seems to be the same pattern except of the shape.

Thanks kivatinitz for the catalogue site. The colours are amazing. I didn’t see this particular vase although the shape is similar to them. None of them have the horizontal lines going through the cuttings. Bob
Hi Ivonne! That is the closest to the design on my vase....it may be busier but we could be on the right track. Thanks
I finally found the information that I was looking for on this vase. It was what Ivonne had suggested...a Sklo Union product called “Moravia” designed by Vladislav Urban for Rosice in 1969. Thanks everyone for helping out. RER
