Most likely Hineri of Japan. I have owned a few of these over the years. Not this multi-coloured type though.

I have made three big glass buys lately and all sellers were able to reference the glass. I am very glad I found this board.

It is a great resource this place for us glass addicts with many helpful posters willing to help with identifications of our pieces. Wish I had found this place years ago!  ;D
