By "decorated glass" do you mean the added fruit bits, or the ribbed form of the vase? If it's the fruit bits, then that was probably also done in other Bohemian factories, and in the UK as well, and maybe in the USA too. Much used in the Victorian era.

Looks very Kralik to me. Here is a link to Alfredo's Kralik page with applied decoration:  https://sites.google.com/site/loetzandglass/kralik-9-applied-and-stuck-on-decoration. The stuck-on decoration is on the next page following the one in the link. Your vase looks like several on these two pages to me.

Hi there, Absolutely a piece of Kralik Applied Fruit... Nice find....

Although many companies did applied work such as this, most of the Kralik production has a fairly distinctive look to it.
