Title: Yes, No, Maybe, Prehaps -- Murano Opaline bowl ???
Post by: antiquerose123 on August 04, 2011, 11:07:36 PM
 :hi: there:

Got this today as I had put a silent bid in a sale here yesterday -- but had to wait to find out today IF I got it -- and I did  ;D.  I am hoping that this is Murano.  It is about 8 inches wide, and about 4 inches tall at the tallest point (the curl).  It does have wear on the bottom.   I am thinking  :ho: that it is Murano, but I am not sure.  I think the color is right, the curl is right, and the wear is right......but I can be wrong.

So does anyone know IF this is Murano, the age, or the maker.....if it is Murano  :X: :X:

Thanks as always. 


I had a good day yesterday..... 
Found the R. Held item, this glass bowl(and put a bid on it and won), and then also bought a vintage giant 4 feet Coca Cola Porcelain Button sign for what I think was a steal.

                             I should have bought a lottery ticket too, yesterday....

Just adding another pic of this item.

The first pic in the post above does not look as true as the colors are.  Maybe I should have tried a photo against black ....?  Anyways, here is additional photos to *try* to show the true color, if it helps. 

Kinda a clear watery (Opaline) light pink color, if that is any better description ?

Kinda like this color (no gold in mine) but the color is like this one, as this is taken with a black background.  Mine is kinda pinkish/lavender color.  I just trying to see if I can find anything on the net here -- but this is kinda the same color (i think) IMHO....

 See here*  (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_jiz7qrgtxk0/TOlX-H3fYOI/AAAAAAAAARY/GBYYfx32lso/s1600/11B+Lav+Bubble.JPG) or like the color of this one  *Here (http://media.modernistglass.com/glassimgs/indeximage/2896__1179114217.jpg)

Might I be getting close at all --- or looking totally wrong (which is very possible)   :-\  ;D
