Can you help with this ?  I'm not able to find in the Blenko Glass online catalogs.
I promised I checked each and every one.

Your glass appears to be a West Virginia Birthday Vase.  I use the word appears as for it to be a legitimate  WVA Birthday Glass it must have a signature of BLENKO family member and
be number - often a signature of the designer will be added.
 
This is an early WVa Birthday Vase -  designed by Don Shepperd.

The bonnet or vase is highly sought after - many were broken - the handle often cracks
with use.

   I don't give value to WVa Birthday Vases - however, they usually increase in value after purchase.
The WVa Vase you sent photo of - is for sale at The South Charleston Antique Mall for a price of more than $1000.
   My experience has been the early pieces sell for between 500-750 .  Although we have one recorded for $1800.
