How nice!  I love the fazzoletto vases.  I have a small one myself and just adore it.  Nice find.   :hiclp:

P.S. - Your lucky to find one with the acid signature that is clear to read.  Mine has to hit a certain light to be able to read the acid signature (hard to photograph).  Some do not have the acid signatures or at least so I hear.

Hi

Great Fazzoletto vase which was the mainstay of popular items made in Venice in the mid 20th century.  Great look, classic styling and an item certainly to treasure.

Ciao

I used to work in Milan so I was close to the Venini shop and plenty of dealers - I actually bought this in the North of England however, in a dedicated glass dealers.

While in Milan I bought many exclusive books on Murano Glass (20s to 80s) and Versace Venini pieces from the Venini shop as well as a fair few pieces of Morreti, A.V.e.M, Nason and Seguso which I love.

I just love Murano glass  :thup:

Hi again, Adam.  I was just reading your last post and was just curious as to which Moretti you are speaking of.  Carlo, Franco, Ercole, etc.?  Just curious as I am a Franco Moretti collector, but I love Ercole Moretti and also Carlo Moretti as well.  So many Moretti's to keep with.    :hug:

Hi Tam

Mostly Carlo Moretti - I have some older pieces bought from dealers, but in the 00s I bought new pieces that I still have boxed from shops around the Milan area - I posted two on GMB not long ago.

Posted here, which I think you replied to Tam
