and I believe this lamp base belongs to the same maker too:

The Bohemian Glass.org site has the blue and white netted vase listed as Ernst Steinwald now.  For a while the site owner had it listed as Kralik or Steinwald.
 
This lamp I've just linked to and the vases and my lamp I've linked above I think are likely to all belong to the same maker. I am aware makers may have moved between factories however there are specific colour links in these pieces as well as dekors, so I wonder if that makes it more likely they come from one factory.

I posted about this a long while ago on another thread and still feel the same that these pieces are all linked to the same maker:

Thanks for adding the above info M, on my brief search I've also struggled to find out further info. The majority of references all seem to quote Stefania Żelasko.

On that note, just adding the below link for reference to an article written by Stefania Żelasko from 2010..

Glass / Re: Beehive mercury glass 'Tango' spatter bowl silberglas - Kralik or another maker?

There are more vases on the Bohemian Glass.org site now listed under Gebruder Frankl.
Along with the cigarette advertising piece which seems to be the same spatter decor, there is another beehive shaped one which I think is a match for the rings and beehive of mine:

Glass News / Dillon Clarke

Very sad to hear that Dillon Clarke has sadly passed away, Dillon was a pioneer of the British Studio Glass Movement and subsequently went on to setup both Midsummer and Cambridge Glass.

Nic mentions here Ikora starting in 1926 (I mentioned this vase on that thread):
https://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,70039.msg390242.html#msg390242

The sparse info I can find says Erwin Pfohl started at Josephinenhutte in 1929.  There is no end date.  The info from the book I think says he modernised the glassworks and introduced two ranges including Vineta-Kristall. So I don't know how long these were produced for. 
Equally I can't find any info about him making glass.  I can find info about glass he's enamelled and references to him being a designer.
There is for example this signed enamelled piece - I've seen that same picture of the women and water on another differently shaped clear vase, shaped like an old fashioned oil lamp shade bulbous at thebottom with a straight upright neck, in a museum collection:
https://www.bohemianglass.org/katalog/vaza-4-akty-2688/detail/

In all my years of searching I've only come across the Miller's one and the 'Schneider' marked vase that I thought were the same, until Steven pointed out that one on ebay.  All four including mine are variations on green and red. 

I can imagine they might have been misattributed when selling however I think they are quite unusual.

There is another pic of the vase base here on Craig's post a few years ago -
It certainly meets the description of light rose with milky flux but I know to my cost that sometimes what the brain imagines is not the reality of the description :)

https://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,65583.msg399939.html#msg399939

There's something familiar about the foot and the way it's shaped and applied on all these pieces.  It's as if a mold was used to shape it and the method of applying seems to be the same on all pieces to me (big generalisation I know):

A faceted uranium glass weight, this one with a cut and etched leaf design. 3" diameter, probably 1970's.

This doesn't mention Osiris but I also came upon this snippet description
https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/Schaulade_vereinigt_mit_Kunst_und_Kunstg/M4FiJrypxVYC?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=ernst+steinwald&dq=ernst+steinwald&printsec=frontcover

Light rose coloured with milky flux is the description.  There seems to be a part picture/drawing but it's been cut off.

I think this vase has been discussed on the board before?:

And again - just in case though this is a tenuous link (but John did mention it reminded him of Kralik Millefiori) , I'm adding this bowl I spotted a few years ago and queried the id. 
The foot shape and the colour of the foot reminded me of my lamp.  Then I remembered the lighting catalogue of Steinwald on CW and that there were some millefiori pieces in that and that Steinwald had used a pale pink with millefiori , although the dekor on this bowl is not seen in the catalogue pages given: 
So linking them both:

Further links to images - it is pale pink glass bowl with amber angled foot like my lamp and has cream and reddy brown twisted short cane sections dotted around on the bowl.

https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/284647-ernst-steinwald-and-kralik-dcors?in=activity


What led me to find this was, I came across a mention in a very old publication (snippet) of Osiris glass from Steinwald which was described as being pale rose with milky white vertical threads.  Osiris rang a bell so I searched on here and came across the bowl I'd posted years ago.  The bowl was listed as Stevens and Williams and as being marked but didn't mention what it was marked with.

For info - S&W Osiris glass is mentioned in Charles Hajdamach British Glass 1800-1914 pages 281-283 along with pictures from pattern books.
