Art Glass Bird -- Murano?
« on: June 28, 2012, 04:38:45 AM »
I have this little bird that I think is Murano glass, but I'm not sure. It is 3.5" (8.9 cm) long. The bird is looking to its right, so I took a picture that is from a backward position. Does anyone recognize this bird? I was concerned it might be Swedish, and not Murano glass at all.

Nice bird Anita

If it is of any help the way the blue green colours work remind me of a V Nason whale I have.

Jackie, that helps a lot. Your whale colors do look a lot like my chick. I think I'll spend a while today looking at V Nason things.
