Have seen something similar on Google, but haven't been able to find a picture of the base. Any help welcome - please!

Here's an image of a Hopla pitcher (http://www.designlasi.com/en/content/hopla-pitcher-2427), with bumps. Can't quite tell from the photos, you'll have to decide if the patterns match (looks good).
