It always puzzles me how these lampwork figures and animals can be identified. They're obviously not all Murano as claimed on ebay. When I was a child, about 40 years ago, we went on holiday to Dunster in Somerset and one of the daily highlights was going to the village to see what the glass man was making. If I remember correctly he used to make small animals and figures, so I've always assumed it was quite a common craft when such things were fashionable. Christine
