STUNNING Bowl - Aventurine (poss FT)??
« on: December 23, 2010, 08:43:55 PM »
 :hi: I got this....and I must say it is Just STUNNING piece of glass, and work.  It just sparkles with the swirls of Aventurine in it.  It is about 11 inches wide, so quite large.  Very bright colors.  I just HAD to have it...     Looks like good wear?  From maybe the 1950's era ???

I am assuming (maybe like 99.9 %) that this is FRATELLI TOSO ? 


I am just so excited  :chky: over this piece !!!

You're right, Rose. FT  :thup:

thanks TxSilver (Merry Xmas there too).... :fc:

You know why I just had to have it --- and why I was 99.9% sure I knew this one -- as see THE GROUP of these I now have!!!  Three pieces (large pieces) all kinda the same --- so I figured if 2 are Fratelli Toso, this newest one must be too!

 :thup: :thup:  Wonder if I will ever find anymore ....
