Hard to determine the extent to which the brown is in the vase or from the table. It is a sommerso, isn't it?

Any chance of another picture against a white background, please?

You're up early, Norman.
Much better pics. I've seen vases like this by a few companies. It's close to a shape made by Galliano Ferro in the 60's (shown in 'Italian Glass,' p.61), although the GF's vases were vaseline rather than clear. I suspect that a few Czechoslovakian companies made something very similar, as did the Poles. It seems more Italian to me than Scandinavian.
