LOL rose... :sun:

The spirals on that piece you listed ardy look thicker and there is definitely less of them compared to mine. Could this piece be a bit later than mine???...I thinky the sig may be good. It doesn't look like a bad dremmel....???!!!

Only thing that concerns me about my piece is the sommerso effect and the thick 'wad' of clear glass at the end. I can only assume he wanted different effects for these pieces... :huh:

Hi Kane

There is a bit of confusion in my mind about this style of AS. I have seen a few that I have been concerned are Chinese, they are irregular in the spirals and not finished well at the top. Not sure if this style has been copied  but there are a fair few of them about (if you are looking). With the age and old label on the bottom of yours I am sure yours is genuine.

Regarding the signature on the bottom. This was a tourist piece for AS and used in various other designs, lamps, bottles etc., he would not have signed them as he signed only significant pieces.

This is my perfume bottle.

Thanks for the $27 note - I just hated you before, now you have become the Arch Enemy (lucky I don't hold a grudge).
Clean and Crisp a Murano twist.
Archimede tops my list.

Exellent. The sprials on you perfume bottle look like my vase...;D That is a beautiful perfume bottle by the way ardy.

I am thoroughly pleased this is an A.S piece, since I don't have a lot of his work, but the collection is slowly getting bigger! Thanks everyone for the help and the laughs... ;D
