The blue colour, the flatness of the base and the chunkiness remind me of Exbor.

 ;)Also, as the piece is not signed or marked in any way, could it not be a murano??? Any thoughts????

I really can't say much as I'm only going on what I have in my own collection.  Safe to say someone else will come along and get it right  ;D

I'd rather have more Exbor than more Murano though  :)

I think only a moderator can change text.  It's all good, someone will be along at some point, I'm sure, not everyone is on at any one time.  I have been collecting glass for 10 years (have had three incarnations on this site) in three different countries and still know very little.  I do love your ashtray through.  The blue is very like my exbor.  Did you Google for the name.

You are in the US (I am British though), whereabouts, if that's not asking too much, I'm in Norcal.  I find a lot of Czech glass here at Goodwill etc and some Murano, no British though. :(

I have trimmed and modified the title to include "Exbor?"
