Is the base highly polished or matte?
It looks matte to me, that combined with the somewhat irregular shape of the base, the thickness of the white layer and the red overlay and some of the canes makes me think Chinese. I cannot be 100% positive without a closer look at the canes.
I often use my camera phone for quick pics of my paperweights. It doesn't do close-ups so I stick a little magnifying glass in front of it. A rather crude technique but it does give nice sharp cane pics.
