Many thanks!

A very nice vase but I'm not sure it's Loetz,not familiar with Lundberg that broken pontil is not a good finish,I'd wait and see what other members who know this type of glass better have to say,Keith.

Not Loetz, Lundberg, Lotton, or any other good L word.

Robert Held?

I am pretty sure even robert held finishes his pieces better than that. I'd guess something like glass eye studio

I myself, based on the inconsistency of the iridescence near the top, combined with what I consider to be weak color, would personally look off shore for the maker of this piece....  and not to Europe....  Especially based on the pontil work combined with the overall finish look. The pontil does not look to me, although it is difficult to tell for sure with out holding it, that it has not even been flamed to smooth it.

Or a more modern studio piece?

The vase strikes me as being from North America, perhaps Pacific coast. The shape is like some of the Vines vases, but I believe that he signed all of his work. It is a pretty vase, but I don't know who made it.
