Hi Marc,

I'm thinking 1960-70's Murano, perhaps more recent.

Lily :)

The canes look like those that were used on many of the AVeM glass pieces, so AVeM is a possibility.

Just for reference ... beware of some items with canes like those, usually recognisable from a long distance away because of the "very striking" colours (personally I do not like those shades of red and yellow used together!). There have been cases of super-magnum items, about 6 or 7 inch (15 to 18 cm) diameter, set onto an ornate brass-coloured metal stand, and offered as very rare antique French, Clichy with a price in the range of thousands of UKĀ£!  :o

One was even offered as being antique Venetian, by Pietro Bigaglia, backed up by the fact of a "B" scratched on the base! ::)
