Ovoid vase in olive green its 8.5inch tall 4.5 inch diameter at the widest. It weighs a hefty 860grams few ounce short of 2lb. Highly polished dimpled base. Photod with a supermarket 2ltre tall bottle of lemonade for better idea of scale.

Look like a Caithness barrel (4019) vase in Moss. Designed by Domnhall OBrion in 1961 and being produced well into the 2000s  in several sizes (Caithness Glass Mark Hill)
