Looks like we're going to have to take the AVeM off the title and go with Ivo's Chinese copy. This one definitely fooled me. The color and canes look so AVeM. I'm glad your butt was matte or we'd have never known the difference.

I am loving labels more everyday.

My canes are gorgeous but my butt is matt.  What more can I say?  As for labels they can be copied and moved .......

...and signatures can be copied. But a matte butt lives on.

Presumably a matt butt could be polished?  Just a thought.  Annie xxxx

I'm still on Murano glass ID.
There some canes that, up to now and in our local market, I haven't seen on chinese glassworks.
Probably be a second draft or just a test piece made by a young "garzone de fornasa".

O yes!
I would like to see some closeups from different sides and of the small murrina pieces. Also base can be useful, but, if it is a second draft, every kind of finishing is possible.
It is very heavy? And how thick is the bottom in proportion with the top part?

No problem. I will get the Photo Slave (see posts on other forums) to photograph both my matt butt and intimate closeups of mu murrina  :)
Good job we've been married for 23 years really  :24:

It is a heavy bit of glass for its size.  As for the proportions of my bottom to my top (Brigitte Bardot eat your heart out!!!)) ............  :hiclp: the bottom is about a third thicker than the sides if that helps at all

To me it is a lovely piece of glass ... and we have had a fair few lovely pieces of glass .....
