Hi,
think german Friedrich Kristall would be a strong possibility. They made a lot dimpled designs.  :)

It also resembles a design that Günther Hoffman made for Gral Glas in 1970, though it's not the same. I've attached the Hoffman (in blue). Maybe this is a variation by another company? But it would at least point to a late 60s, early 70s date.

I have found an image on the internet of a very similar vase in clear glass with a  Friedrich Kristall sticker on it. So it looks like it may point in that direction. Thank you Dirk .
