I have never seen one alike and it is not documented as a Tamara Aladin design. However, I can very well see you could think of it as one as the details make it look like a funny composition of a couple of her known designs. It would be interesting to know the height, and see a photo of the base.

Thanks for the additional info. 28 or 30 cm would be a typical height for Riihimäen Lasi.
The base does not look Riihimäen in my eyes. I hope someone who knows even better confirms how they see it.

Not Riihimaki, I believe it's Aseda, by Bo Borgstrom.

here's a cased version of the same vase I used to own.
