Or possibly generic (no known maker) Murano. I have one quite similar. It has been identified as Murano.

So if I am right.  Here am I with my new found confidence thinking I was buying Czech glass and I got Murano.  I think that was a win win of total fluke :rah:

I don't think yours is Murano. The shape only looks vaguely similar to me and not the same at all.

Your pictures are also rather small. When you resize make the longest dimension about 700 pixels and you should be OK.
