Hi you kind people on GMB , I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge of what Italian Glassmaker produced this vase ??? This stands at 7" high has a heavy clear base and is is coloured in a lilac shade , it has a bullet form interior , the base is marked with an impressed Italy 32 and in the centre is a letter B within a circle , I would be grateful for any information regarding this item , and thank you all now for any information given ... Thank You Roy (artyroy)

Looking at the base, you can see that it was blown with a moul. It seems to have printed (with the moul) "Italy" on the side and a logo ("B" ?) on the center.
Personally I don't think that it was made in Murano.
1) The mouls are not very used
2) If mouls are used, they are at 99% not of this kind
May be central Italy?
SIncerely
Alex

That is the Bormiolo mark.

That is the Bormiolo mark.
Bormioli is the most famous name, but there are several glass factories with this name:
http://www.bormioliluigi.com/
http://www.bormiolirocco.com/
http://luigibormioli.com/
I have no ideas about their logos...

It's a Borgonovo item.
Not Bormioli.
