*Three Labels* on this one (Duck) - Plus ORIGINAL WINE
« on: March 01, 2008, 07:36:50 AM »
Hi, I just bought this today....Hope this one is easy, as there are THREE labels on this one.  Looks like a duck, and still has the original wine in it.

First label:        The rooster Blue/Silver with initials of *AS* on it.
Second label:    DRIOLI  -- CHERRY WINE, prepared in Italy (yummy wine  :-*) Hiccup...
Third Label:      On the end, has a silver label with the initials of F.D. on it

So hopefully this helps to explain about this.  Any idea on maker, the year, and of course -- all the labels.....TIA

Not much seems to be known about who made the Drioli bottles yet Rose. Two earlier topics about them here:

Hi, I think I found a match -- Link http://www.drioli.com/

Click on *photos*, then *glass* -- and if you click on *Murano Duck #2* it appears (to me) to be a match. 

Also reading about this company's history here, it refers to a "FRANSESCO DRIOLI" .  So I assuming that the silver foil label on the cork (back end of duck) is a label for Fransesco Drioli -- as the label says:  F. D. on it (??)  Would that assumption be correct..

The duck design reminds me (in my opinion) of a seguso ducks I have seen, sort of (??) click here   This duck was done by Archimede SEGUSO.  On my bottle here - the funny Rooster head (silver foil label) also just happens to have the initials of A.S. on it.

So is this/could this be Archimede SEGUSO label then (??).  OR is this JUST coincidence that Seguso made similar style ducks like this.....and this label just happens to have A.S on it...

The reason why I ask is because in the GG, there are other examples of this funny looking Rooster label there on display, with question marks behind them...

http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/displayimage.php?album=102&pos=2     Murano ????
http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/displayimage.php?album=102&pos=25  Murano ????

Just wondering.....I know it has been discussed here before IF THESE were just Import labels (the funny looking Rooster heads labels) because their have been different initials on these labels, such as:  A.S., A.F., and A.Q.

Sorry if this is a silly question -- but I love a good mystery. ;)

The funny "looking rooster" is the symbol of Murano

That's pretty good to have the Murano connection confirmed by the rooster label.
Thank you very much!
