Sorry no clues, but the small rubber feet are just furniture protectors which you can buy from DIY stores to protect both the glass and the shelf or furniture it stands on, from scratching.

I would say Czechoslovakian 1930's - I have a tall vase with similar pulls and the spatter finish in pink and aubergine.  But I don't know if you'll get closer than that at the moment.  I did wonder whether mine might be Ruckl, but I think quite a few makers did this sort of thing and when I compared mine to a known Ruckl vase there were differences.  I think yours looks as though it could be the same maker as mine.
Pretty vase.

Thank you for posting,  and for your help, I will have a look at the Ruckl glass you mention Flying Free.

either that or Gyldkrokens Glashytta from Hjo, Sweden between 1972 and 1982

Or perhaps french or belgian? These pulled blobs remind me a bit of some Scailmont
Art Déco pieces...  :-\

Ivo I've not heard of them, another maker to investigate.
  Dirk I forgot about Scailmont and I recall commenting on how similar some of the pieces were to Czech pieces  :-\
Also it has a ground but not polished pontil mark.  I'm sure it is the lighting and my imagination but is there a signature on the left of the pontil mark in that pic?
