Not Bagley. Can't tell if it's uranium.

Does anyone know who made this little vase?, its possibly too small to be a useful vase, is it blown or pressed? I dont know anything about this type of glass, could it be made by sowerby?

It's not Sowerby or Davidson. It's not uranium either from those photos.It's blow moulded, not pressed. Looking at the optic ribbing and the rim, I would say 1950s perhaps Continental Europe. It is a vase: the sort usually described as a violet vase from the time when you could actually buy bunches of violets, snowdrops and other small flowers from market stalls. (I remember my father buying me violets as a child.)
