Cameo vase, layers of green and clear, trees mountains water, Riedel maybe?

Thank you Mike :) 
I think the particular green colour, the glossy finish of the (slightly iridescent looking) top layer of green, the landscape and the design, and the way the design is executed, as well as the finish of the rim all point to Riedel.   

I have found an article, I think by Petr Novy, which included a picture of a catalogue page of the landscape cameo lamps (like the ones I linked to on the other thread) but it was in Czech and I can't find it again at the moment.  There appeared to be two blue on white windmill vases but I couldn't be sure if they weren't constructed like the purple and white botanical vases I've seen which have a white interior.  Mine doesn't have a white interior.  That's the only other reference I could find to the two colours in landscape.
There is nothing relevant in Truitt's or Das Bohmische Glas from what I could see, and I don't have the Riedel book.

For anyone who hasn't seen it, this is a picture from the Passau museum of the landscape vases in multicolour

I also have a cameo lampshade (different in style, with flowers on and gilding). It was bought in Austria many years ago by the previous owner.  I thought at first it was French or Belgian but now I think it is also Riedel possibly.  I'll post it separately.

Thanks again for taking the time to reply :)

There is a very good closeup of trees on this Riedel vase on Gilded Curio.  The bottom photo.  Put side by side with a close up of mine, it looks like a match.

The green also looks to be an identical match for this Riedel green bowl (scroll down to 9th item down) here when put side by side

In addition to which, looking at Serafina's lampshade on the previous link, the trees look the same, as does the type of iridescent blue glass compared to the flat areas of the iridescent green on mine. 

I think it's a definite id of Riedel.

Posting a much better picture of the tree tops on my vase (ah, just realised I'd already added it but have posted this post now :) ).  Looking for confirmation that I'm right for Riedel as the maker of my vase please  :)
When I put this photo side by side with the bottom picture on the vase on Gilded Curio they are identical in design and technique
