ID Help for Covered Glass Bowl - ID = Bertino California

(1/2) > >>

tonyatl:
I have an unusual glass covered bowl on round foot with short stem. the glass is green in the lime/avocado family covered with gold stringy webbing which forces a puffy bubbled shape to the glass. it is rather heavy for its size. It has a partial sticker on the underside which looks mid 20th C. Any guesses on maker or type of glass?

tonyatl:
well, christies sold a somewhat like minded glass vase by marcello fantoni. this is a commercial production and probably has nothing to do with him but the ideas are similar.

tonyatl:
i also assume it to be hand blown as i do not see any seams.

tonyatl:
mystery solved. i found someone on ebay selling a very similarly composed item with its label for Bertino Hand made in California. Clean with damp cloth - just as mine has.

Anne:
Well found, thanks for updating with the ID, Bertino is a new name on the board.
