Hi, new member appreciate any help. I got this bowl at a market. It is labeled on the bottom as being made in Murano. I am looking to confirm this is a valid label since I know there are fakes out there. I am looking for any information about the piece...artists name, year made, value even if approximate. Would love to know what I have. The base is green blending up the cobalt blue and the tip of each of the 6 petals are clear. Thanks to anyone that can assist with any information.

Welcome to the message board DianeLA.

As far as I know the maker of these pieces is now a mystery but they will have been made in Murano. There is a green variation of the same label too that crops up from time to time, my guess for when is late 50s and into the 60s, maybe a little later too.

Any value will depend on many factors at the time of sale, generally not something we tend to speculate on here. For a ball park figure look on ebay for similar sold items.
