Original thread
Connie:
Good sleuthing, Nic. I was half-right ;D
Pip:
Thanks everyone - that's great! I know the owner has been watching this thread who I'm sure is grateful to you all. On a separate note, I've got a blue knobbly hobnail type cased vase I'm wondering if it's Empoli also - I'll bung it on a new thread ;D
Pinkspoons:
And with label: Auction

Sorry to drag this one up again but I have lots of cased glass and I'm always curious to see them with labels. I have a green vase the same as the blue one at the top of this thread and I've just seen one with a label on that doesn't say Opalina Fiorentina as far as I can see (I've asked the owner for a picture of the labels but yet to return to me).
As far as I can read, there is a top label that says '_avorazione a ____ano' then underneath on the same label what looks like 'C______ in Toscana . Italia ' the label has a strip going down on the left hand side with a pic of a glassblower on it.
Underneath that is another label that says 'MOD DEPOSITATO Made in Italy'.
Just curious to know if this is an Opalina Fiorentina label then?
