Baccarat, no...Venetian?

This unusual item looks to me like an old Venetian piece, probably Victorian, but not as early as Bigaglia. Any views?

Hi Alan.
Everytime you`ll give your own right answers :thup:
Never Baccarat.
It is a Murano item of the second half of the 19. century ( that means victorian).
