Is it Czech

Tall conical shaped vase in peat colour - lense effect throughout - feels blown not moulded or pressed - any idea if Czech or not?

could be wrong Adam, but it looks rather like one of the Borske 'large olives' variants.    However, might suggest that you improve on the background contrast  -  bushes and various garden aspects don't help when the glass is of a more delicate design/colour :)
