Looks fine, they were made in different colours and sizes. If you perform a search on this board you will find other examples.

I am perhaps a bit more hesitant, I'm afraid. It is really hard to be sure in the absence of a label, but the shape on this one makes me think more of Åseda than of the original Percy vases. Also, this cobalt color was very rarely used for the Percy vases (have only seen one in all my years of collecting), while it was very common in Åseda's production.
