Topic: Millefiore - gold ground

[Max]

I was wondering if this paperweight is Italian?  It's 3" across, so it's pretty hefty.  Looks modern to me, quite a pretty little thing (if the colours are a bit on the garish side  )  It's got a gold inclusion cushion underneath, and it all looks well made. 

Is it Italian?  Don't tell me Chinese!    :spls:

Definitely Murano. Max    :clap:

Thanks for that confirmation Leni.   

...now if I can just find a reallllly sunny windowsill, I should be able to set fire to my curtains.

psssst you're not in the clear yet. Some fundamentalist paperweight collector might come along yet and tell you exactly how silly you are ... 

[Max]

I'll be ready Ivo.

Thank you.  I'm putting it beside my bed as it's so cheerful.  Maybe it'll put me in a good mood in the mornings. x
