Hi everyone, I have been trying to figure out what the signature is, venini or murano, been searching for days on the internet, and the shape of the vase is really hard to find.
Big thanks for the help, wish you all a great day. Best regards from Sweden

Hi. Is it possible to get a better photograph of the signature on the base?  The first letter or letters aren't visible. The end bit looks a bit like the end of Mdina but it doesn't look like a Mdina vase.

Does look very like a Venini signature to my eyes, but I'm no expert on their output.

Your photos are fine.  :) They blow up nicely.
You could try using a dusting of cinnamon or cocoa powder over the mark to help make it stand out for the photograph, just rub it over with your thumb.
You can add 4 images to each post you make, just click on the bit saying "more attachments" under the box and a new box will appear.

Welcome  ;D , and thank-you for posting your images directly and for struggling to get them resized. It is very much appreciated.
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)
