Lovely Millefiori Lamp - Toso?
« on: February 24, 2011, 02:13:33 AM »
Hello Murano lovers.  This is my first post here and I'm excited to see what you all think.  I just purchased this lamp.  The only label on it is just a simple group of numbers...not much help.  I know that similar lamps were produced at Fratelli Toso.  Does this one also fit the bill?  Thanks.

It looks like Fratelli Toso to me. It's rare to find millefiori pieces that still have labels. The lamp looks like it might be from the middle part of the 20th Century, but I don't know which decade. I hope someone will have a better idea of the year.
