request for id for bubbled clear vase.

Would have put money on the fact that this had to be Scandi - and this one almost certainly is  -  but I've just seen this evening that Richardson's did similar lumps in their effort to copy the Nordic types.   Slightly sun-purpled - plenty of wear to the base which has a large good quality ground/polished pontil, and the bubbles are not quite as random as it appears  -  a double stream of large ones are followed by a single stream of smaller ones.   The rim is fire polished only  -  and height is about 8.5" - 215mm.     Don't feel too confident about an attribution, as I usually come unstuck with these things, but in view of the slightly rather quirky 'pinched' top, hope someone might know the maker, and thanks for looking. :)
