last one for me.......I don't think this is Murano, but?

I have had this for quite some time, yellow and clear. Around 2 3/4 " tall by 5 1/2 " long.
You all know glass far better than myself, does it look like Czech?

Hi and welcome to the board. :)  If you're not sure, the best plan is to post your question into Glass as that's where most folks read most. If we can establish something's Murano or Scandi or whatever, we (i.e. one of the Moderators) will move the topic over to the right place for further discussion. Re multiple queries, yes please post each item as a separate topic, but don't post too many each day or it doesn't give others the chance to be seen. Three or four per day is fine though. ;)If you get stuck using the board either have a look at our help posts here: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/board,22.0.html, or you can email one of the Mods - click the envelope below a name to get an email address, or ask for help in Cafe and someone will come rescue you. :thup:

Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd

Moved to Glass for greater exposure - hope someone recognises this piece.

Just to get the ball rolling:

I'd begin by ruling out Scandinavian. The colours are possible for Murano and Czech. The sharp notches would move me away from Czech, but then I haven't seen anything quite like that on Murano either. Force me to make a choice and I would say Murano is more likely.

Now, I hope someone will come along and tell us what it really is.

I'm no expert in these, but as always: an image of the base could help, please  :D

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)
