My rule for Blenko, and it is only my rule, is that it has to be pictured in my old Blenko book with the catalog pages. I know that my book is not complete, and not all pieces are shown, but there are so many different similarly made crackle items in the marketplace, that I do not feel confident in calling it Blenko unless I can clearly see it pictured in the catalog pages of my old book. Of course, Blenko is hand blown, so it should also show the pontil mark on the base.

I admit the bottom doesn't look Blenko like but I've never seen a Blenko with a foot so just don't know.

Thanks Gabla, I've come to the conclusion it is not Blenko. I found the same thing listed on eBay under Loetz c1900 crackle glass Art Nouveau..., And who knows if that is what it really is. The difference is the one on eBay is described as being thick glass and mine is thin and delicate

Still, Loetz or others around the 1900 period might be a good direction. Could fit, from your photos. It looks beautiful.
