need id on murano candlestick
« on: July 06, 2011, 03:01:15 PM »
I have a set of four in graduating sizes.  This is a photo of the largest and it measures 16.50" tall.  All are signed on the bottom Cenedese.  Any and all information would be helpful.

Those sure are nice looking candlesticks.  Is it possible to post all four of them together?  I would love to see them together in a final photo.  I bet they look wonderful.   :hiclp:

Thanks for the additional photos of them all together.  I think the cristallo ones you have look more elegant.  Sometimes glass can make a statement without color.  I think they are great candlesticks by Cenedese.

Hi, well I also walked right by them..as the former owners had them upside down, not knowing what they were.  That's when I saw the signature.
thanks, I did find these on 1st dibs, but they are blue and frosted.

The only thing I can add is that all the pieces I have seen by Cenedese have all been signed and look similar to yours.
Clean and Crisp a Murano twist.
Archimede tops my list.
