Hand Blown Grey Footed Vase

The vase measures approximately 9" inches tall. I was wondering if anyone has seen something like it before. I've not seen a smokey colored glass that was this deep. Thanks for the help.

Interesting texture. Almost dimply, but not quite.

REALLY not my field, but I'm thinking potentially Italian - Empoli region, c.1970s.

Conversely, it could just be a well-finished piece of Chinese glass from around the same period.

I don't think that it will turn out to be a 'designed' piece from any well-known manufacturer.
