Hello

Please can anyone help to identify this beauty? There are no marks or labels.

Many thanks

Is it the same as this one in the link?
Looks very similar to the one sold here. This is signed and has a label.

 :hi: I just noted that the horsie posted here has more glass (pointy) mane things than the other.  Not to say that it might not be the same maker still, just one only has like 4 points for the mane, while the other has more.

I guess cuz I like Horses (used to have one too) that I just noticed the different amounts of glass in the mane.

This is one of the horse heads done by V Nason. This is their most popular one. Formia does a horse head that is similar, but the eyes are different.

There are many of these being offered online. Some have labels. If you put "Nason Murano Horse" into Google, you can find a few of these with labels. One of them is at http://www.biggerbids.com/members/images/3145/public/78415_PIC00009.jpg. The pictures on the site need color balancing, but they show the eyes well and have a label.
