Welcome to the message board Slimboyfat.

I don't know who made your vase but it would not surprise me if it turned out to have been made in China, just like this one that was for sale in 2018.

You could try this site but the closest seem to be the blue vases in the "other scandinavian" section.

I'm almost certain this is Scandinavian but I can't remember which factory. Eneryda sprang to mind, though share similarities with some Gunnar Ander work for Lindshammar

It would probably helpful if you make careful measurements  - height, Widest diameter, narrow diameter, glass thickness.  I suggest in millimetres would be best.
