Bulbous mezza filigrana vase....
« on: May 06, 2012, 07:33:46 PM »
Hello All,

I recently bought this awkward little Murano mezza filgrana vase and am wondering if anyone has any information about it.

It stands about 6 in./ 15cms tall and the foot and handles are done in what I believe to be satin glass with gold leaf. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
It has plenty of ware on the foot but hard for me to capture in a photo.

Although the execution of the handles is a bit rough and the proportions are downright unforgivable, in my mind, still retains its charm.

Thanks for your time,

rob
