Topic: Glass Figure - On Swirled Base w/label

[Anne]

I found some figures on swirled bases here Rose, but can't tell if they're very similar as the site pic is quite small... Fratelli Pitau   http://www.italianshop.com.au/clowns2.htm and some on plain bases here... Formia  http://www.italianshop.com.au/formia.htm

Thanks for those sites they are most interesting.

The one page http://www.moltabellaglass.com/items/460506/item460506store.html#item the bases are a bit different, but the leaf at the back, the hands, the faces, and edging sure do look similiar to mine...but it is still a hunt I guess.

Thanks for those links  :clap:

Here is a figurine that does HAVE white around the base edges like the white around the swirled base of mine....but still have not found a swirled base that has scalloped base edges ---YET.    Still looking...

    * *..............Could this be some NEW NEWS on a possible maker for this item???



See HERE   ??   Looks like it has a dot/dash label.....and a label by "E. Vianello S. Marco 364.65 Venezia Italia"

So could this be a possibility of a maker......just throwing it out there.

More likely a retailer because of the address in St Mark's, Venice
