Amethyst horse with gold mane

(1/1)

josordoni:
I think this little horse is charming - I have a little fish that also has these matt bronzey gold areas. The fish is not terribly nice, and I just put it away as a bit of stuff. 

But the horse is rather nice, the amethyst glass is very streaky.  He stands about 5 ins 130 mm to top of his head.

 I am assuming Murano (the shape of the head and the legs?).  Is he just generic or was anyone in particular using this bronzey gilding?

Lustrousstone:
Could be Murano but there's an awful lot of Russian Murano horses about. Some of them are even called Russian Murano

josordoni:
Aren't they mainly the little ones though Christine?  this is much bigger at 5 ins tall, 5.5 ins long nose to tail.
