Topic: Pressed glass vase

[essi]

Found this vase today and had to take it home. My knowledge of pressed glass is small.
Any help concerning the manufacturer or the time period would be appreciated.
It is 145mm tall. Top diameter is 120mm and the base is 70mm.
Thanks,
Tim

on Pamela's pressglas-pavilon.de it appears to be showing in the unknown group of vases  -  whether I'm looking at an old edition of that site I'm unsure - perhaps since then it's been given an id.   It's the first item on line 26.               https://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/vasen/08895.jpg

It's a guess but it has a hint of the Biedermeier style about it which would make it mid to late 19thC.

Wiki seems to be saying that this style ended mid C19 ? - not that I would know, but assume it's the chunky style foot in particular that suggests that connection.

Yes Paul, officially it was about 1840-50 but I think the influence carried on later than that, but I'm no expert.

taking a totally uneducated punt I'd imagine this hails from somewhere c. 1920 - 1950, but get a horrible feeling it will remain a nony mouse.    If Pamela wasn't able to run it down then presumably  not an easy piece to ID.          You know what an expert is ??    X marks the spot and a spurt is a drip under pressure

I've a dark blue vase with fins that I thought was Sowerby.
Like this one:

Yours reminded me of this when I saw it, probably because of the sticking out fin bits.

It's nice - unusual.

Thank you both for your input.
The stylistic influences on the vase would keep an art student busy for a while.
The pictures are not the best, but i took the spheres and the vertical drop to be sort of art nouveau .
The base with the dots have an Art deco feel.
Overall looks, sort of Jugendstil ?
As stated, if Pamela has not tracked it down this could run and run.

IMHO m, your finned vase is never Sowerby  -  again, I'd suggest interwar years and if I had to suggest origin, it would be eastern Europe, or slightly west of that
