Could this be the base bottle of a perfume spray? The top looks like where the spray mechanism would attach. It is straight and perfectly round. Just a thought.

Having a clear bottom means the colour is sprayed on which is a Chinese technique.  It is not dishwasher proof,  as it were.

No it is just a decorative vase.
