Would this vase be Murano?

(1/1)

Catisfaction:
Gorgeous cranberry red vase, applied thing around the neck. Looks like it either has elongated bubbles in the surface of the glass or it's a panel optic, my eyes are having trouble telling what it is.
ground n polished pontil.


Laura Friedman:
It's possible, but I'd also look at contemporary Bohemian glass.

Catisfaction:
Thanks Laura,

Any hints or tips from distingishing the difference? Art glass is not my strong point.

Laura Friedman:
Hmm. The base looks different from most Murano glass I've seen. Also, the clear rim around the neck looks, at least in the photo, a bit too perfect to have been applied by hand.  Otherwise, the shape looks Italian, so it is possible.

Catisfaction:
Well that clears that one up then lol.

This is why I prefer signed art glass ;)
