You have a fair chance that this item is Chinese. The milky inner and the grayish colour of the outside glass, as well as the unfinished pontil mark, point at this. Main consideration in this production is speed, not quality.

Funnily enough Chinese did cross my mind Ivo,something about the shape,size of foot ring, reminded me of some ceramics and it didn't quite fit the usual suspects,just to add it's much pinker in the real.
