I picked up one of those yesterday, the bottom of his feet weren't shiny, my thought was perhaps Chinese - just didn't seem quite right for Italian, but I could be wrong. The body also seemed quite sophisticated but the beak and feet rather crude

[Cazza]

bottom of feet rather dull, am not sure at all, but its quite cute.

I've got 1 of these in a model of a penguin, not Chinese. I'm a clot as I found the maker and can't for the life of me remember where I wrote it.
I tend to write things down on bits of paper, not good I know.
I'll have a good hunt.

Hi there Martin
thank you for your reply, hope you find the bit of paper soon. I am the same, bits of paper everywhere.

god know where i left it, but I just had a quick look under perfume bottles on eBay as I remembered a few there before,

I'm fairly sure this is the same guy 

[Cazza]

Many thanks it is very similar
:-)

Just seen he signs all his work, my bird is not signed.

Just to throw it into the mix, there are Charity shops round my way selling new pieces with the same look/technique...

I cant remeber if this bird is part of thier range or not? or where they're getting them from...

I do think this a a new piece, such as one would find in a discount store (Ross or TJ Maxx around here). Some of them have Murano stickers, but some are Chinese (and sometimes I think the ones with Murano stickers might also be Chinese...)
