It’s surprising sometimes….trouble is most of what I see is 1940s described as 1840s ;D

When you say you think it's by Egermann do you mean Egermann blew the glass?

m, to be honest I haven't gone into that, I assumed that Egerman manufactured all the pieces attributed to them but, having had a quick look, it appears Egerman decorated pieces made by other factories. I'll have to investigate further. One thing I did wonder about was, considering the thickness of the glass, whether it was mould blown using compressed air rather than by mouth. I know Baccarat were using that method then but whether it was used elsewhere I don't know.

see page 71 and 72 for more information on Friedrich Egermann:

Your piece is undoubtedly Bohemian.  The cutting on the foot is very typical for the Biedermeier period.
