Title: Purple pulled feather vase?? ID = Dalian Shanya Trading Co, China
Post by: haynes330 on January 14, 2010, 08:16:50 PM: This is a beautiful vase. It is 9 inches tall 5 inches wide at the top lip, 3 1/2 inches wide at the base . The base is clear the rest is lavender with iridescent gold drapes. There are no markings on the vase that I see. The pontil is ground down. I have no idea of the age or anthing else any help would be great.
Thanks

Post by: langhaugh on January 15, 2010, 07:37:36 PM: Is the glass full of bubbles (pulegosa), or am I seeing something else? I have piece of purplish pulegosa that I've never been able to identify, but Mexico was a suggestion from someone, which would make sense where you are. The glass in the piece I have is quite light with very frothy bubbles.

The piece doesn't look Murano to me, although the technique (fenicio) is typical Murano.
I hope this is a start for you.

It is a beautiful vase I thank everyone for their help. I still need help with my little pink vase I think I'll post it again.

This is just what I was about the type. I see this pattern on eBay listed as Murano or Italian design by sellers of Murano-like Chinese pieces.
