Title: Can you ID this Glass vase maybe Italian or Portuguese??
Post by: wiggy131 on May 25, 2009, 07:49:12 PM

Hi,
    Can you help me identify this vase, I have no clues to who made it, appart from a signature on the bottom, but it really hard to make out. I think it says. Cuquilli or Guquilli and a a mark which is a makers initials intertwined?? Maybe someone could recognise the style. With the name ending in I, I thought it might be italian?? About 6 inches high.
Thanks for you help

Hi Vickie,
I thought i had this straight away, see my vase here, one of my favourites, sits on the bathroom shelf.
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,18479.0.html
Phoenecian glass, Malta. Leonard Mulligan.
But, although very similar, signature doesnt look like any of the above and the base is different.
there may be a connection with one of the Maltese makers.
I hope someone knows, id be interested. Let me know if you are selling it ;D
(whats the top like, is it similar to my vase, white inside??)
Cheers
Andy

Hi Andy,
            I don't think it the same, as it has a painted texture on the outside. The signature is very different as well.  :( I had a look at the Phoenician Glass website, and some of looks alike, but the surface isn't glassy. I'll let you know if I'm selling it, because it is a lovely piece.
Thanks for your help
Vickie

I don't know if there's any point in ID'ing enquiries that are over ten years old, but perhaps it might be useful for someone.
Anyway this is Jean-Pierre Cinquilli. I know because I made an id request for the same guy and the signature was identified by Anne!
