Owl with A Decora Glass Import label
« on: February 19, 2015, 10:44:08 PM »
I just started collecting Murano glass after purchasing a couple of starter pieces at a local auction.  I have been looking for a couple of days and can't find anything to verify if they are truly originals and who the maker and approximate dates may be.  Pictures attached and any information is much appreciated.

Welcome to the Board.

I have changed your title to something more meaningful which may attract more viewers.

However, there are a few threads from the past that discuss that particular label and it is seems that your Owl was likely from the AVeM company.

Hopefully those who know will add comments soon.

After some additional research it looks like this may indeed by AVEM and the label dates to 50s-60s timeframe.  Still looking for artist if possible or any other identification information.
