I have a nasty feeling that the casing is really a sort of resin over glass and that it's an Avon type item.  I could be completely wrong of course. Check the outer with your fingernail.

Well spotted, Christine. Look through the neck and hold the vase against the light - the word AVON is imprinted in the bottom.
