Venetian Glass Collection.
« on: March 04, 2018, 02:41:08 AM »
Hi,
I have my eye on a Venetian glass collection that is coming to auction tomorrow.
Any one have an idea on maker or value?
I only have 1 picture to go on and thats it. I can see stickers on the bell and cup on the tray but I cant make them out.
After buying a rooster that this forum identified as fake, I thought I would check with the wise ones here first :)

It's always difficult to tell where these come from as they were/are made in Murano, Czechoslovakia and I believe Japan. The bell label looks like a Bohemia Glass label. We don't do values here as they are too subjective.

The sticker on the bell is a Bohemia Glass export label, much like this one.

Sold for $70 AUD.
I thought the bid was with me @ 70. I was wrong :(
