The lightweight orange vases seem to be from Germany, but I don't think they have been properly catalogued and attributed. You could think of manufacturers such as Taube, Ingridglas and Wiesenthalhütte - all did the modern angular style in the 70s - but as said, we're still waiting for a piece with a label to appear. Could turn out to be Empoli or Oberglas after all.....

Thanks all, I had kept using my link but kept coming up with the 404 msg. But I ended up coming in by going to the gallery and clicking the board link from there.

Definitely no label on the vase, or any other markings, except for what looks like a run of glass right down the side. I will keep looking and try a few searches with those names anyway. Thanks.  :)
