I have seen very similar in 'black' glass with thick clear trails, in a few sizes and shapes. I think they are or were sold in British Heart Foundation shops in the last year or two.

Hi there
i would also agree with the british heart foundation charity shop part, they also done a very simlar one in animal print with less strapping. really heavy, but quality not there, grit in the glass and lots of tiny bubble (not as in controlled bubbles).
all the best
