X-Rated Murano Vase
« on: March 28, 2009, 09:12:22 PM »
"Randy" design (see what I mean?).  I was told it's Venetian, although I'm unsure because the quality of execution isn't in my opinion up to the standard of a 1st tier firm.  I'd love to be wrong, though.  Has polished pontil (see photo).  Does anyone know who designed and made and and when?  Completely unsigned.
Thanks,
Charles.

There's one like yours on eBay this morning. Not a lot of information, though. The number is 300304398828.

Striking similarity.  The factory in China must have cranked out more than one that day.  ;)
