Can anyone tell me if this piece is actually Murano? If not what is it? It is completely white on the bottom.

Well, it looks like Murano - but sort of different!   :shock:

I like it!  There are bits that look like leopard skin in it!  :D

It is circa 1970s "generic" Murano glass, maker unknown.

Zwiesel Farbglaswerke from Germany did something scarily similar in the sixties/ seventies and it is difficult to know which one is which. I agree that this one is Murano.
