Only just come across this post which I have been quoted in  ::)  so decided to dig a bit deeper about this vase and I am now of the opinion it could be by Rosice...and is a plain version of pattern 2911 (see page 35 of 1958 catalogue) Mine is 15 cms high as in the catalogue it also comes in 20 cms ...which looks like the green one discussed here earlier... Looking at the profile of my vase the top band is flat compared to the lower ones which are concave making it ideal for a pattern to be put on it....as in the catalogue pictures. The 2911 also has the three ribs at the stem of the vase...so what do you make of that idea !!?  ;D

Found this on the Sklo Union CD database that comes with Marcus Newhall's Sklo Union book.  Looks very similar

Thought I would resurrect this thread, rather than starting a new one on the same topic.  I have an amber version, 21cm (checked three times and definitely not 20cm).  Mine is a pattern match for BFG's same size green vase, and Simba's smaller pink one.

I have compared it to the Rosice 2911, and the proportions do not look quite right.  Not sure if this is due to the image being a drawing, but the narrowing at the base, and the shorter first section at the top on mine, raise questions. 

Most of the images I have found, that match, are attributed to Davidson.  However, I haven't managed to locate any catalogue images for firm attribution.  I am almost certain its not Inwald.

There is some fogging/water marking on the inside, around the transition between the first and second "rows", which made me wonder if these pieces ever had frogs?

The vase is darker in the "flesh" than in the photographs.
