I can't see red / aventurine colour in the monart catalogues although there is colour code 429 which is rose pink / aventurine but it doesn't have a photo to compare to your vase. Here is link to monart catalogues which will help you. Shape CC was made in the same size as your vase.

I have never seen an all clear, red, full body in Monart.
The base doesn't look right either and the shape worries me. It's not really "full enough" and a bit wonky.
I'd reckon Bohemian.

Earth without art is just eh.
