Portuguese maybe?
« on: September 15, 2010, 07:32:49 PM »
I posted these pics on Margi's thread but then quite by accident stumbled on a number of vases being sold as Portuguese on the auction site.  I'm now thinking mine almost definitely originated in Portugal if those attributions are correct.
I'll try and find the seller numbers again.

150492538420  is one example closest to mine.
the others are not as similar.  For the future ref, the ones that are being sold are being listed as made from recycled glass.
If you go to glass and put Portuguese in search (if you are interested) the seller has a number of different variations - worth a look just to remember in the future

I don't know why I bother sometimes, but once more: the maker is Gordiola, the decoration Cinta.

Be patient with us Ivo. We don't all have the brilliant mind for identifying glass that you have.  :thud:  But we do love you and all your help  :kissy:

I was taken somewhat aback when the same vase re-emerged within 24 hours after IDing it - sorry for sounding snappy.  For some reason people seem to be disappointed by a Mallorca attribution - which is unjust if you've seen the prices in their showroom.

If you go into ebay USA type in Moser Royo you will see some interesting Gordiola glass , lots are coming on the market now because they have been told by a certain glass forum they aint Moser but they are still asking Moser prices .

Thank you for your thoughts and responses.

Anne thank you for transferring the pictures.  There are no other images on this site with glass that looks like my bowl either with the same trailing or the finish, searching under Gordiola. Nor are there any under searches for  Mallorca, apart from one candlestick which bears a vague similarity and which I believe is attributed as possible La Fiore.  Likewise I did not come up with any other images searching the net or the Gordiola site, that have this bowl or finish. So please feel free to leave the pictures here as it may help someone in the future.   :)


For some reason people seem to be disappointed by a Mallorca attribution - which is unjust if you've seen the prices in their showroom.  Personally I am delighted - this bowl cost me £4.00.  Thank you.

Scroll down to "Cinta" on p. 2 for the trailing decor.
