Art Deco green vase red 'flame' splotches - Schneider
Mosquito:
Another vase in a similar style and colourway and presumably from the same maker here on ebay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/167541003549

Oh I love that shape as well! Thanks SO much for spotting it and linking it here. It's quite a distinctive shape. Same pontil finish as mine I think? i.e. Cracked off, ground/smoothed but not polished.
Maybe one day we'll pin this down.

Hi M,
The below link shows the above referenced vase in Mosquito's post with a photo or catalogue reference and its attributed to Erwin Pfohl and Josephinenhütte. One of the photos shows an illustration showing a number of examples from this range, some of the colourways also look very similar to your example.

Here's a rough Google translation of the the eBay description:-
""Design: Very rare, Art Deco "Vineta Crystal" vase, designed by Erwin Pfohl for the Josephine Glassworks in Schreiberhau (now Szklarska Poręba, Poland), manufactured around 1930. Mouth-blown, with powder fusion, in green and red, mold number 0673/8. This vase is documented in the most important Josephinenhütte book of the 20th century, page 316. A specimen is also located in the Passau Glass Museum in Germany. This is the only example of this series we have ever seen outside of a museum. This Vineta Crystal series by Josephinenhütte was a response to the "Ikora" glass series by its competitor (WMF). The glass contains some production-related internal bubbles, like small scratches, which are only visible with a magnifying glass."
Hope this helps.

Helps? I'm blown away by your generosity in sharing this and that you found this reference. Thank you so very much!!
Well, that's amazing. I am thrilled to bits with this.
The colourway of the linked vase is identical to mine. Wow. That's fantastic Greg.
The yellow bowl in your linked ebay picture (showing Stefania Zelasko book pictures) is interesting as I think I've come across the yellow splotches in another vase in my 14 year long searches for this.

Unfortunately all my auction links are now dead. Soooo annoying.

You're welcome, I'm sure it's nice to finally attribute after 12 years!
Quite lucky really to stumble across such a useful reference, just shows how things come to light over time.
The comment regarding this range being in response to WMF Ikora is interesting, I suppose that's why so many came up in the early searches.
