Hi Rosie,

i was going to reply to this thread but I wasn't sure of my thoughts on this example,

so here goes, I'm not at all sure its Murano,

It just doesn't look right to me,

sorry for being negative, I hope i'm wrong Rosie   :'(

You're not being negative, Martin. I wondered the same thing myself.

Hi Anita and Martin....point taken,  but I can't for the life of me find a glass woodchuck, and he is so like a squirrel and so Murano-ish,  and every time I look at Seguso Animals,  I see the same 'chunky' style.
 
I have found a monkey and a cat in the same material...opaline glass,by Seguso,  so I am going to keep looking and not be disheartened.  Anybody find anything similar,  please say so.....please!! :thud:

In the meantime,  Happy Holidys everyone :kissy: and see you back here after Boxing day!! :hi:

Hi Rose :hi:
Thanks for that....what a sweetie he is, but I don't know that he is the same maker....yours looks as though he has been on a diet compared to mine!....I love squirrels and you can probably tell, I am DESPERATE to know who made this one.

Every squirrel you and other GMB members find is helpful,  and you are not the least bit *trying* Rose....Truly!

Have a wonderful Holiday and we will all met again after the festivities......4days of eating and drinking....GROAN! :mrgreen:

Hope it isn't too soon to bump this one back into the limelight  :sun:
I really would like to know who made him,  he is so lovely and so nicely made.
