That's a relief,the last one anything like this I found was Chinese,poor photos again I'm afraid ,the colour is more like the top of the vase that caught the sun,what date are we looking at do you think?

Sorry,forgot to add this photo,and just to add it has a ring of sorts for its shape,so I would think there is a lead content in the glass.

Here's a more true reflection of the colour,think pink,and getting pinker everyday,not a lot of wear to the base although it does have a hard dust layer,got to be Victorian doesn't it?.
