This is a delightful glass bottle, with no markings of any kind, does anyone have any clue to who made this. 8)

Thanks

Could it be Italian. They made a lot of these round bottle vases.

My thoughts are that it looks like an Italian piece loosely based around Helena Tynell's Sun-flask Aurinkopullo.   :)

What does its bottom look like? (That's a question you'll be asked a lot here... bottoms are very important to glassies.)

that is a bottle made in a bottle plant and should have reference to the maker on the bottom.

Come to think of it I'm sure I've seen those with liqueur in them and a label on.
