hi  -  funny shaped goblet ;D  most of the contents would be down your shirt.        Could be wrong, but I'd suggest Italian  -  I had something similar once, but for the life of my now forget the name.

Surely you are not suggesting a nation of messy drinkers Paul? :D

frankly I'd drink anything if it's free ;D            the name I had in mind was MVM Cappellin - but doubt very much this is from them  -  their work was usually quite fine in construction, and the only piece that I had was marked anyway  -  much of their glass would now be quite old and bordering on a genuine antique, I think.    Folded feet are often an indication of some sources and that's not apparent here.   So, I'm clueless.  ;D

Yup me also , nothing really springs to mind??I never think Italy when there’s a polished pontil but that shows my lack of knowledge more than anything else probably !It’s well made so I’ll keep looking for a colour match ??
