Swirl Glass Cased Ewer - Italian or Chinese???
« on: May 09, 2016, 12:39:58 PM »
Hi, this is my latest car booty find but is it a TK Maxx chinese special?  Not sure what to think.  It measures 9.75" tall and is quite attractive, any help would be gratefully received.

Italian, possibly from Empoli, try searching Opalina Florence.

Thanks John, I have googled that and the colours /swirls are very similar.  I will look further into it now.   Have you seen my funky pressed glass ice bucket I put on this morning?  No replies yet but still hopeful.  Best wishes, Kerry.
