It's a 'Gulvvase' (with two v's) - in English, a floorvase.

Designed in 1962 by Otto Brauer for Kastrup Glas, with production continuing after the 1965 Kastrup-Holmegaard merger. The label style dates production to c.1971-1980. As far as I know, the '31' on the label is just an internal batch number reference.
