Any help on an ID would be greatly appreciated (maker or specific name for this shape).
Is this a flute? I think it is a little short (both height and volume) for a pilsner. It is 7 5/8" tall. Foot is 3 1/8" diameter. pontil is a clean snap off. The color is very similar to Steuben's BRISTOL YELLOW (Steuben's name for it), which is sort of a honey amber that has uranium salts present. Yes, it glows great. It is not marked.
I looked through both Gardner's book and Dimitroff's book. The closest I came to was in Gardner, pg. 197, bottom row, 2nd from right, labeled shape 5105. However, that one is missing the ball at the base and is 7 1/2", not 7 5/8". above the ball at the base, it is a trapped bubble. This was a gift to me, and the giver still has a few of them at home. It would be great to help her with an ID.
