Hello,
I don’t know anything about Ukranian glass, it is not very common in Sweden.
Everything is possible and I will look at it too.
In my first quick search I did not find anything near but I will try more😀

Hi, I know nothing about Ukrainian glass 

However, I have a small catalogue of pieces produced in the 1950s 1960s and 1970s (and some much earlier) from an exhibition.  They are kind of 'folk art' pieces in the sense that I feel they are peculiar to their culture if you like.
There are some similarities. There are a couple with the very red glass, the thickness of the rims and also lots of applied handles, pincer stuff and repetitive bobble type curls applied, not dissimilar. 

I can't explain, just something about them - as though yours is a more refined version of that 'look'.

Here is one I have - mine is the amber one -

do you see what I mean about the similarity with the pink piece I have pictured from the catalogue.  Difficult to explain, but the shape, the small handle on the side, the two colour idea. 
Anyway, I thought it was worth mentioning just in case

No problem I have a 'forato' bowl and stumbled across the term when trying to find a maker for it or at least the possible country it was made. Most of them seem to be made in murano

I agree with Staircase in this topic, the more I search the more can I narrow in Murano.
I bought it in hope of being a Murano piece, it had many attributes in common with them.
My search does not stop here, my search can go on for tens of years and suddenly you find the one you look for......
Thank you all, if I find it I will tell you.

Ps. I post two pictures from a Murano hole from a signed I found, it looks the same both outside and inside.

Nothing in your vase would suggest Murano to me... I would rather think Polish.
If you do a search for Jerzy Słuczan you will see lots of glass in a similar vein.
Here is a vase almost identical to yours in an auction catalogue:

Hi m!
Yes, that catalogue is really interesting, some nice glass there.
Unfortunately I know next to nothing about Polish glass...

I know I love Zbigniew Horbowy and Feliks Nawrocki. I have been lucky enough to visit the Museum in Wroclaw.
I really don't understand why Polish glass makers are not better known.

Hello again,
When I googled ”Wazon Jerzy Słuczan Orkusz” I found out that I probably had one more vase from this maker in my garage..
Regards
