Title: Large Red and Aqua Blue Stripey Bowl , Murano? Poss Czech?
Post by: Andy on June 15, 2011, 04:51:46 PM

The 2nd of 2 lovely pieces i got at auction today. was very dirty, but perfect condition.
Im thinking ive seen a Murano pattern similar, also the aqua colour.
Any ideas anyone?
Cheers
Andy

Hello Andy

To my eyes it looks like a Murano bowl.  The base doesn't look very uranium-ish though...does it glow a bright greeny yellow?  :)
