Please help identify 3 pieces?
« on: April 09, 2009, 04:08:43 AM »
I have three pieces that I think are Murano and am considering selling.  I believe that each piece is vintage but am not certain.  Any help identifying the maker and estimating value would be appreciated.  Please see attached pics.

The fish looks like it could be from Murano. The style of the swordfish and this type of base is often used for Murano pieces. The compote and vase don't look like typical Murano pieces, but they may be -- I don't know. The compote looks like it may be Italian. I don't have any ideas for the vase.
