It stands about 185 mm tall - anyone recognise it, I presume 1960's?

any idea how much older, it's quite geometric so would it be 20-30's?

It's Brockwitz Globus, known as Moonprint by Carnival Glass collectors. You can see more about Brockwitz and view a host of different shapes in the pattern on my old website - start here>

Mid 20's and 30's (possibly into the early 40s).

Similar or equal, Brockwitz GLOBUS - pattern came in numerous shapes, still in 1931 catalogue, 1936 tray only (no Globus in 1921) :
