I am thinking more Harrach than Moser, possibly someone else.
Blue and purple teardrops with a purple applied rim.
Large polished pontil.

Height 7.5"
Weight 640gm each.

Thanks for looking.
Roy

Interesting vases, might also add Auguste Jean to that list.

I suspect there may also be some French possibilities.

Add Theresienthal to the list.

I wouldn't think Auguste Jean - I could be wrong but there's something I notice on his pieces not on these   :-X

I think the different coloured trails might have indicated Harrach.  I think there's been a Harrach piece on here before with different coloured trails.
However, the red/purple trailed rim is unusual, or rather I've not seen it before, and the enamelling ... I did think Theresienthal at first so agree with you they might be worth looking at but I wouldn't have thought they made the vases.

Can we see another photograph close up of the enamelling please?  if you have time.  Many thanks.

And if you search Auguste Jean on the board, there should be a few threads with further details and photographs to browse.

There is a vase in the Harrach book with multi coloured 'teardrops' or rather long trails like yours. Page 313 Ill.374 - it's dated 1903 and the drops are known as Tropfen.
It has a purply ruffled applied rim - the body is pale blue glass, the long trails look similar to yours and are three pairs of drops in light purple, light yellow and light blue glass.
I'd be inclined to think yours is more likely to have come from Harrach.  But I can't put my finger on where it might have been enamelled.
