I've not been able to find a shape match to the vase so far, and also it seems that all the Poschinger vases have a firepolished rim - but there is one that appears to have a cut and polished rim in the Passau museum (it's on the left hand side at the back of one of the larger group displays in the photos below -c an't remember what page sorry).
But if your vase were mine I would still be leaning to Harrach at the moment.

I've attached a link to Poschinger displays in the Passau here - if you click forwards there are about 5 or 6 pages (pages 73-77) of Poschinger so you can compare.  They are pretty amazing glass :) so worth a look anyway.

Thank you so much for the link - some beautiful glass there :)
I think I found the one you referred to (with a painted Iris flower).

Being a total newbie to Art Nouveau glass it is very interesting to see the Passau displays, I wasn't aware of a website showing so much of it...

So Harrach seems still more likely, no objection ;)

OT: as my fellow Ikora collector, m - have you seen that interesting goblet I found last week? http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,52961.0.html
Do you have an opinion via yes or no?
