Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can help me identify this signed glass trumpet vase. I think it's a vintage Murano piece with a signature that I think says Cenedese. Also has a beautiful designed gilt band bordered with what looks like enamelled bordered design and stunning blue pedestal with gold foil.

Hello and welcome.

Is the signature on the top of the foot?  Please post a picture of the full base, and let us have some measurements too.

Under an image search using Cenedese, I found this signed compote, said to be by Gino Cenedese.
It does seem to be related to your goblet.
I haven't signed up to this auction house, so I can't see the details.  :)

Signed, with a dedication dated 1990, on the underside of the foot, which is why I wondered about this piece.

And the first name on the OP's piece is not Gino. It looks a bit like Fars-i, which is what I searched for.
Murano isn't my area. It's too big and confusing for me. :-[

I could buy Cenedese for the second word, so perhaps Nonoparmo needs to dig deeper into the history and see if any names pop up that start with F and end with i.  But I'm not completely convinced by the signature.

It's always best to look at the glass itself. My own handwriting varies enormously, I seem to have a few different "styles". ;D

It was more the actual engraving......something about it didn't feel quite right.  I know some board members know more about different tools used over the years, and it may just be a feature of the tool used.  However, what look like hesitation marks on the F, and the missing/incomplete letters, together with the odd hyphen like mark before the last letter of the first name, make me wonder.  By comparison, the engraving on the piece on the auction website was very fluid.

Hi Catshome and thank you for the welcome message. The signature is on the top of the foot. Do you want a picture of the top of the foot or the bottom of the foot?.
