French I'd say  :angel:

Les Fils d'Adrien Thouvenin, Verreries de Vierzon 1900 planche 155, folio 55 # 2307 , 225 mms

is a good match.

Is it uranium?  ;)

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.

Dear Pamela,
Thank u so much for that and the vase is 225mm high...i have just tested it and sadly no...not uranium.
Delighted in finding the French connection as i had seen it somewhere before...now i have written it down and it will stay in my mind for sure!!
Have a great evening
Norman

Not Fenton ... and this cannot be a pressed piece (how would you get the plunger out?!!). It is a very attractive blown item.
