Thanks everyone, sorry again about the pictures, here are the links:

http://www.trocadero.com/svazzo/items/1089212/en1.html

Cenedese Swan or Crane
[Mod: Enormous URL converted to a "text link"
Please also note that the link goes to a "Download Attachment" page and it is necessary to click the "here" word to view the image.
An alternative route is to go to the "Murano Zoo - Birds by Cenedese-3" page and view the "Swan or Crane" image from there.]


The second one was on the Murano Zoo site where I also came across the Cenedese bird signed by Alberto Tosi

Now, back to my research...... ;)

Hi Pipsi,

I have converted the very long URL in your post above to a "text link" - and also added extra info for viewers who are new to how the Murano Zoo pages operate. Sometimes a very long URL can cause problems with display on PCs or other devices.

Don't worry about it. It's the sort of thing a Moderator will sort out if it looks like it needs it.  :)

It can be a steep learning curve, we all have to start somewhere...

I'd have to ask a moderator or somebody how to convert a huge link into a small one, I just haven't had the opportunity to show my ignorance yet.  ;)

Lol! I was just feeling sorry for myself and my ignorance - over it now  :D

I've not found out much about the Toso/Tosi conundrum, the more I dig the more I realise how little authenticated information is out there. The styling of my bird is very similar to Cenedese though so I'm looking for artists/manufacturers who have the same linear quality to their work if anyone has any pointers.

Thanks  :)

That's the joy of glass collecting. ;D
And why we're here.

We've not had any input from some of the serious Murano folk yet.
We don't give up here. Some identifications can take years, some just seconds.
