Hi Connie, for what it's worth I once had an orange Carlo Moretti satinato vase - it was a very different shape from yours but the same colour and finish to the glass - I'm wondering if yours is related at all (sorry I'm not certain one way or the other but I'm sure someone else will be).

Thank you, Pip.  I noticed that your vase was cased (white lining) but in my searches on the internet I saw others attributed to Carlo Moretti that were not  :-\
