Title: Cenedese Scavo Glass ??
Post by: bmw1 on March 12, 2014, 06:13:35 PM

I have listed this under the 'Murano & Italy Glass' discussion rather than 'Glass Identification' as one item has a label .... which is a bit of a give-away. I'm just trying to clarify if the others are the same - so it falls a bit in the middle.

I am assuming the 5 pieces in the attached photos are Scavo Glass.

One has a worn 'Cenedese Vetri Murano' label on the base, but 'Cenedese' is NOT scribed on the ground rectangular area.

The other 4 are without lables but similarly nothing is scribed in the ground rectangular area.

Does anyone know:

a) Whether 'Cenedese' frequently left that area unscribed ?
b) Are the unlabelled items likely to be attributable to Cenedese ?
c) Any ideas on dating for these type of items ?

Any help appreciated .... and apologies if it is listing in the wrong place.

Yes these are Cenedese and scavo...it is not uncommon for them to be not signed, such a prolific output! Especially these pieces. Probably around the 1970's or so but someone with more Cenedese knowledge should be able to confirm the era they were made in. Lovely pieces, they look really good together in a group :)

Thanks for the response - appreciated.

I had sent an enquiry direct to cenedesegino.it but no reply ...... should have come direct to the experts first !

Yes - they do look particularly good as a group, especially with the varying heights and all different colours ....... first time I'd actually put them together like that.
