Title: Blue & opal cased - Italian?
Post by: Pip on September 01, 2008, 03:30:20 PM

I know these things are ten a penny - I've seen zillions and never usually buy them HOWEVER this particular vase has such a nice shape - like a bullrush - I couldn't resist it.

What's the general consensus of opinion on these - Empoli, Italy?

I thought maybe an outside chance of Moretti but nothing to support that in Pina Centry 20

I wish!  I know what you mean though and I'd love it to be a Moretti but I don't think it is.  Perhaps it's Moretti inspired? LOL
