Burnt Orange - Iridescent surface - Italian bowl - Who??
« on: April 03, 2011, 07:15:19 PM »
I have had this piece for a bit and decided to try to ID it if possible.  1 of 4 pieces I am going to post today.

6 inch diameter, 2.25 tall... tons of age wear on the flat base. Nice iridescence to the surface of the glass subtle, but there for sure.... very thick clear outer layer......

Ideas of house??

TIA  Craig

Just a best guess really, but reminds me of some Barbini bowls I've seen.

Hi there:
Not sure If this is true or not --- but I had read somewhere that Burnt Orange in Murano colors was rare....

Here is where I read that, so not sure if that is true for the color *orange* or in the color orange for lamps ONLY ???  Maybe you have a *special* color there ???  Does it match that orange there?

It says that you can contact then for a color match?  Is yours that bright?

Just throwing out my thoughts.... ;D :thud:

Craig I came across this looking for my lilac lampbase and remembered your bowl.  Not entirely the same technique but the colour looks similar?

Hi Rose, That color is much more similar to the piece.  Both the color and gold are also similar to the other piece I posted.
