Hi, I have two piece's of glass that I don't know much about.  :?

I think this one is made by Alrose, Murano.


I thought it might be Alrose because their is a similar vase on Ebay.

I haven't got a clue who made this next one. It has what looks like three layers of glass. Red, white and orange. Edited: Possibly 4 layers as it looks as though it has a clear casing on the outside.

You can see the white and orange layers in this picture.  :)


Any information on these would be much appreciated.  :)

Hi Tigerchips - I'll be very interested to see if anyone can shed any light on your "Alrose" vase.  The eBay link that you give shows an illustration taken from Leslie Pina's "Italian Glass" of a decanter that I have.  This was discussed in a previous thread hhttp://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,1842.0.html. 

 Mat (guest) and Jemmy too, I am sure will be following this with interest also, as they too have the same decanter.  I have to agree with Cathy(?) in your previous posting on the general glass thread, that Alrose doesn't sound Italian and might well be the name of the importer.  It would be good to see a label.  The base of mine had what only could be described as an inverted "nipple".  I can't tell from your picture whether yours has, or not.  I've googled "Alrose"  without success - but will keep trying.

Regards - Anne E.B. :lol:

Hello Anne, when you mentioned searching Google you reminded me of a previous search I did when looking for information on Alrose.  :)

Here it is but it's cached so no picture and only part of the description.

I wonder if anyone knows how to read the entire description in full.

My base doesn't have an inverted nipple but the way the stripes spiral out is similar.  :)

I'll admit myself that I thought it was a modern piece at first, but the ware to the base seemed a bit much for ultra modern.  :)

Thanks for the link showing details of the Alrose Company pitcher.  Shame there's no picture to go with it :)

I've taken another picture of the base of my "Alrose" decanter for comparison.  Yours looks remarkably like mine. :shock:

I'm sure someone will be able to confirm whether yours is by the same maker or not.

I've found a vase on ebay which is identical in shape to my orange vase. I'm just wondering if anybody can identify the maker by the label?

Also, the spiral vase above looks similar to David555's vase that he posted recently, could they be related?
