Hi, any suggestions who made this heavy fish sculpture? And when was it made?
I'm sorry for that bad pictures, but i can't take better pics cause the seller didn't cared about sufficient packaging, and the item is broken into 1000 pieces :(
Dimensions: 22 x 25 x 11cm

I've another question. Have somebody expierence with restauration of glass? I've got some other items that i received broken (they aren't damaged like this fish sculpture, only 1 piece is broken off). Is it expensive to restore glass professional?

I would be grateful for any information.

That is heartbreaking....

It has the look of 1930s Murano, like MVM Cappellin or Venini.

No idea about restoration in Austria, if you want to try glueing anything yourself use the glass glue that is cured by UV light, it dries perfectly clear.
