Title: any ideas on this glas monster ?
Post by: ejean9 on October 16, 2009, 05:10:31 PM

This vase is HUGE..i was told when i bought it..that it was Murano. It weighs a ton ! 8 inch high..8 1/2 inch wide from one part to the other..almost 9 inch the other way ???
Colour..difficult to describe..peachy but smokey..and has a kind of lustre to it..a real beastie...the bottom is smooth..but not polished clear..iykwim ?
any ideas ?
Thanks Jean

Probably not Murano, maybe Chinese, perhaps from elsewhere. HUGE always strikes a warning bell with me as the Chinese often seem to think that is the way to go and with the matte bottom...
