Another piece of glass I bought purely because I loved the colours, it was nice and heavy and obviously had some age. I think this is Murano but as you all know I'm no expert - any help would be gratefully received. Thank you :-)

Is there an amber layer between the blue and the green or is it a trick of the light?

Looks Scandinavian to me. Vaguely reminsicent of Stromberg or Kosta, although they signed 99% and 100% of their work respectively.

In reply to Chuggy - yes there is an amber layer in between the green and blue. In reply to Horochar, I'd say this was perhaps too chunky and heavy to be Scandi?
-
Any chance of more photos Pip? Maybe bigger? Not that I can identify it (although it does have a Scandi feel...) but because it's unusual and I'd like a better look. :)
PS Can you describe what's going on with the colour? Is it graduated greem amber blue, or is the blue sommerso?
-
Here you go Max - this picture probably shows the colours a bit better. It's not sommerso - the colours graduate into each other and look to me like a little drop of each colour has been applied to clear glass.

I'm pretty certain it's not Murano might be worth posting on the main glass board.

Okey dokey will do - thanks for that, it's helpful to at least eliminate Murano ...
