Post by: penguin13 on September 26, 2013, 08:51:24 PM

Hi all, im new to this boards and new to collecting glass, im having about a 50% success rate on iding pieces i find but this one and a few others (more about them in the future) that I just cant ID

This is a heavy vase, in excellent condition but I cant find anything like it, has anyone got any ideas? it measures 19.5 cms or just under 8 inches tall.

I would be HIGHLY surprised if this is Murano. The chances of it bekng Chinese or Polish are much higher.

I was aslo reluctant to reply - it looks very new and Chinese - but the base finish is not what I would expect.
And it doesn't look well enough made for Polish.
Certainly, not Murano. And I would think very recent.

Decorative - and don't worry about using it. :)
