Does it have a pontil mark? Lead glass or not? Size? Wear? Colour of glass?

From the foot and the air bubble I'm thinking continental, possibly German. But we need more info to help decide.

It has a pontil mark. The color is clear so i would say lead glass
height14cm high
The foot is not overall nicely rounded where the folded foot appears...it is a bit squiff.
The foot is also slight convex.
hope that helps and thank you for looking
