It reminds me of some Poschinger iridescent pieces for some reason.

Hopefully someone who actually really knows will be along shortly to help :)
but in the meantime it might be worth investigating?

Small chance it could be Okra - during the time it was owned by Moorcroft they did produce some stuff that went unsigned, only receiving a sticker.

John would Okra be blown from the top and cut at the rim?

I can't open that but have looked at online and yes, they do seem to be cut and polished at the rim.
And the shape fits doesn't it?

I think you are closer than my Poschinger suggestion ;D 
so Okra Moorcroft period most likely given the decor, the shape the cut at the rim and no label?
