It might be Galliano Ferro, have you tried it under a UV light to see if it's part uranium glass?

Always assumed these bud vases with a spherical base are from Cenedese, pretty sure I have seen one signed along the way somewhere but that one was the outlier. They crop up in other colour combinations as well, typically green and amber.

Here is my labelled one, shape and thickness of the casing seem a little different...

Yours looks like the more modern single colour version (assuming the same maker), with one layer of colour instead of two you would expect the final casing to be deeper.
