Title: Fazzoletto with multi coloured banding
Post by: adam20 on September 23, 2011, 01:17:46 PM

Presuming this fazzoletto is Murano - over 3" high with blue, green, white, purple, and red bands - ground pontil to base - date 60s 70s - maker?

Thanks Adam

Sometimes it is hard to tell if the fazzoletto vases are Murano or not because American glass artists and makers also made them.  Not unless the vases are marked then it is very easy.

I dont know why but my gut feeling is thats quite a good one  and Italian .
The colours and form look familiar .

It looks familiar to me too.
Many glassmakers could be the producers, quite impossible to say an exact name.
The colours combination remind me many glassworks by Di.pi. company.

So is it Murano? Alex, I have never heard of the maker you mention.

Yes, I think so. It looks as made in Murano.
That is a small company. They produce small objects and lamps.
Not high-end, not entry-level glasswork. Overall good craftpeople.

Obviously it is just an idea, I can't be sure at 100%

Ciao
