Large Purple shaggy dog help please
« on: January 19, 2015, 06:14:20 PM »
I'm taking a chance putting this on here, I think it's Murano with the little I have been able to find on the net, i'm not sure of age or maker or even if it's Murano.

It's a large piece of glass being 9 1/2 inches in height and 8 inches in length, the collar is not uranium glass.

Any help welcome regards Chris.

Thanks for your help guys, i'll have another look at the murano dogs, i'm thinking this might be 50's in date, would i be far off?. It's in incredible condition for it's age.

Anita has some dogs posted on her Glass Zoo.  If she pops in she will be able to tell you -- PLUS she probably want to add a pic of your doggie to her Glass Zoo.

Here's the link:
