Welcome to the board. We really need dimensions, a base shot and another picture of the vase against a plain white background to help.

Fenton Art Glass made a piece similar to this for a New York-based importer/giftware firm called Rubel in the 1950s-60s. I suspect yours is the made in Europe version that Rubel couldn't get done any more, so they turned to Fenton.
