  I have a goblety type vase with a bubble base that I'm sure I saw id'd as a made in Portugal a few years ago.  However I can't remember if the one I saw was labelled or just attributed and I've never seen anything since about Portuguese glass to be honest.

I know these aren't the same, but might they help in tracing a maker for yours?

Hello - I feel like we must have similar taste CultureVulture as I bought this the other day as well (for 75p!) and the shape / colour / optical effect of the top looks remarkably similar. The base is obviously very different but I'm just adding it for interest. Again, apologies about the quality of the photo but it was just taken for me records and I'm adding it for information, rather than identification.
