Pink Cased Glass Spoonbill, Flamingo or Swan
« on: September 27, 2010, 01:15:33 AM »
Could someone please help me to identify the country of origin, vintage and maker of this unusual art glass object?  These forms are usually swans, although the bill of this one makes me think spoonbill or flamingo.

Thanks,
Charles.

The glass reminds me of the type that has either "Lavorazione Arte Murano, Made in Italy" or "Crystal Clear" labels. If it is this kind of glass, chances are good that it is made in Italy.
