This one looks like a little test tube bud vase with light green bubble base.  Any ideas please

I think whether Whitefriars made bubble based bud vases is still hotly contested by collectors!  Meanwhile...here's the bud vase site again for Pain:

...as GB said, lots of companies made these and very often you find be able to find who specifically made one.

Hi Pain, My guess would be Czech/Bohemian, could you supply a picture of the base please?
