Topic: tall acid finish vase

[soledivo]

Why I bought this I don't know, i don't like it at all, I think I fell for "oooh its got a signature"  :ho:

Can anyone I.D. the sig. for me, I've tried for weeks to make it out.  :chky:

Its 40cm tall.

I know this doesn't help much, but could the second word simply be "Murano"?

[soledivo]

thanks Wayne  , yes the second word is Murano

[ardy]

The first word could be haus as there is a Haus Murano photo comes up on a google search. Don't know about any glass blowers there.

i found Haus studio glass, but was unable to find out if its Murano or not.

is the finish a scavo?    I like it.
It might be worth searching for that term and see if some pics come up?  It's a bit odd that it has a label mark left on it though.  I wouldn't have thought that would happen on a scavo finish

Hi - There is a sale of a piece of Studio Haus glass here http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/7864820 it is nothing like yours but it did sell for $200 which is encouraging. Nice bowl and well made.

There was a Rosenthal Studio Haus in Copenhagen that dealt in quality art including murano glass. An outside chance but it could have been a piece they sold and engraved it.

Do you think it could be Zane, Martin? I don't know what his signature looks like, but Luca Zane does make glass in Murano.

@ flying free, I did have good ponder over wether its scavo or not,

I decided on "acid finish" as it doesn't have the texture I would expect from Scavo, I also crossed corroso of the list too,
I may well be incorrect, but the mixture of colours and the way they are dispersed led me to decide on acid finish.

The label mark was a small white bog standard paper label, probably the price in euros.
The vase was rather mucky and needed a good clean, what was left of the label wasn't worth messing about to save it.

@ Ardy, that's interesting, maybe it is the importers sig. shame that company has shut, no pics to look at. :cry:
