I.D please: Ingrid glass, West Germany??? Barbini?
« on: December 29, 2009, 06:53:11 PM »
Hi, i got this for christmas.  Im thinking its Ingrid glass, West Germany?  Also would anyone know the designer?  It measures 6inches high x 5.5inches wide, and has a random bubble pattern.  Any ideas would be much appreciated, many thanks.

Not sure what it is but I'd sooner vote generic Murano than Ingridglas...

Generic means typical of Murano workmanship but not attributable to any one Murano maker (unless we find a labelled/signed version).

The plot thickens.  Are both of you saying that this is definately an Alfredo Barbini piece?  How much did you sell your gold one for? Have typed in his name and struggling to find the same vase as mine??? :)
