I've recently acquired this very large glass vase.  It stands at "16 tall and has two separate sections that have been scraped away.  I've seen battuto vases before, but this seems rather crude in comparison.  It has a clear glass bottom to it as well.  I'm not even sure this is murano.  Maybe you have seen something similar to this in the past and can help identify it.  Thanks for your help.

I have seen vases similar to this, in battuto style, at TKMaxx here in the UK.

That's not a battuto finish. This is though, other variants on the shape of the little "hammered" bits are possible. I would suggest China
