Title: Tiny Bubble bowl
Post by: mrs vulture on June 11, 2010, 08:38:32 AM

HI  can anyone tell me who the maker is for this tiny little bowl,it has evenly (bullicante?)spaced bubbles throughout and is amber cased in clear glass with a blue rim, its just 3 inches across (8CM) and has a tiny polished base 1/2 across (1.5CM) pulled in edges, very beautiful to look at.
Many thanks Cheryl

PS Hubby has sussed out how to post pics without useing photobucket.wahey :hiclp:

I've seen something like this before but I just can't remember where... Could it perhaps be Czech? The brown-blue colour combination looks somehow very czech to me.

 :hiclp: from me too.
Just to put a spanner in the works,  >:D I'm sure I've seen the blue - brown colour combination in Hadeland, but I do not think this is anything to do with Norway.

I like the spacing of the bubbles, really geometric..nice.
I have a few Murano ones and they all have a spiral effect in the bubbles.  I like your style better  ;D

My vote is Murano. The shape is typical, as is the the form of the bubbles and how colour is handled. As usual with a successful Murano style, made by quite a few companies, including Seguso. I don't think I've seen Czech that small and fine.

It's a little closer to this one, I think, Rose, but with the colours reversed.

Hi David, that looks the same to me, so the verdict is Murano or is the jury still out?  ;D    Cheryl

I'll move it to Murano forum to see if anyone who's not commented would like to.
