Hi Katherine,
the pictures a little small, so the base area is hard to see, but I think it might be a Josef Inwald piece.
Could you give us an additional picture, please?  :)

Yes! I agree.  The lighting is a bit poor too.   Most devices can be set for different lighting, e.g, flourscent, Opalescent and daylight etc.   On a white background would be a good idea too.  Hope this is of some help. :)

It is what I think it is... and I still think this is Shrotter for Sklo Union. But I do need somebody who knows for sure to confirm this.
I have one too. It is a nice thing. I think they are faily common. It's the sort of thing I end up using as a (very stylish ;D ) waste paper basket - on a desk top or similar sort of place.

If it is a 1960's Sklo Union Vase, I certainly want be using it as a waste paper basket.  That would add to my collection. Even though green is not my favourite colour, the shape reminds me of the three footed rocket vases, but in a more simplictic style.   Nice find! :)
