MURANO CENEDESE or OPALINE BOX ??
« on: August 23, 2016, 09:05:32 AM »
Hello everyone,

The sticker on this box says Cenedese Murano.
The other part was ripped off.
I believe the sticker is authentic, so it HAS to be Italian (?)

Is this an opaline box?
Or alabaster?
Or something else?

I can't really find another Cenedese Murano Box (with price) online.
Also I'd like to know how old it is approximately.

Anything else you can tell me about it, i'd like to hear!

Thank you for your help!!

R.Antonis

The complete label would have had the pattern number on it - see attached photo. They seem to have been used at least during the 1960s-70s.

Your box will be opaline glass.
