Lampwork animals
« on: April 18, 2011, 04:44:45 PM »
Lampwork animals, can anyone tell me, if any are Pirelli, Murano, Chinese or anything for that matter, if you would like an individual pic of a particular one, I will be more than happy to supply, the largest is the blue swan at 6cm high, and the smallest is the penguin at 22 mm high.  Thanks.

Robert.

They're not Pirelli, but lampwork animals are nigh on impossible to identify, as every man and his dog everywhere has made/is making them.

If it helps, the duck looks remarkably like a Whitby Lucky Duck.

Might be worth looking at all this lot, just in case.....

Thanks both, there are only stuck in a box doing nothing, and running out of space, so I've decided to donate them to the charity shop, I'm sure they will appreciate  more than me. Thanks again.
