Wuold like to know the maker of this one
« on: December 11, 2004, 02:49:15 PM »
I bought a heavy, smallish vase from eBay a year ago.  I think it was attributed to Murano, possibly Barovier.  It is unsigned.  This is a link to an identical vase currently on sale on German eBay.  The only difference is that mine is yellowish green.  I have also seen one in a beautiful light pink color.

Would wellcome any ideas of maker and age.

Definitely Italian. Probably Archimede Seguso, circa 1950s.

I'm wondering if you ever saw this response.
The Ebay auction is long gone.
Any chance of a pic of yours ?

Peter,

Thanks, I did see the antwort - I think my response was lost in a general problem with the website.  Based on the information I got from this board  I did find this German auction house website which actually identifies the vase as Seguso Vetri d'Arte.  I now have two of the vases - unfortunately my camera is not working wery well, but here is the link to the German auction site (it's 148 on the auction catalogue):

OK I've seen a fair few of these in a wide variety of colors.
The one on the German auction site is a particularly striking color combination I haven't seen before. That pic will probably disappear in a while.
I think Terry has a couple  - maybe he will post pics.
