got this unusal glass mace vase today , it measures just over 13" and aound 5" across the ball part, the ball is brown/dark amber the same colour as the trailing on the neck, ....the spikes/punts on the ball are clear glass same as the foot and neck, , the pontil mark is a strange one, it measures 1.75" across, could it be German? and i wonder if it could of been a frigger out of a glass fishing float factory?

I'd go with frigger. But what is strange about the pontil scar? cannot see it that well.

look at the 2nd photo Frank and can you see the white line thats the pontil scar , hard to explain but it looks like a hollow tube has been attached to it and broke off

Most likey just caused by an air bubble.
