The shape and the ground rim leans me towards Bohemian but the decoration seems more French. It is pale green, 22cm. tall with a large ground pontil which was done before it was frosted. I assume the "jewels" were just glued on afterwards, it also has a blob of glass on the body which must have dripped onto it during manufacture.

It doesn’t strike me as French at first glance , more Eastern Europe and faintly turkish ??
-
Yes the swags could be Turkish influenced or French Empire, I think Moser made pieces in the Turkish style.
-
This may sound odd, but it looks kind of incomplete? ???
As if it should be part of a suite of something.
-
It might be part of a garniture of some sort, I've seen sets of three other vases, one large one and two smaller. The gap in the swag decoration looks a bit odd too.
-
Maybe that gap is what is making me thing it ought to be a garniture - I did not suspect it was part of a pair- but something a bit more complex.
I have been imagining it needs swags of glass chains. ;D
