Title: Small millefiori Paperweight ??
Post by: petet63 on May 26, 2014, 08:20:03 PM

Sorry about the quality of the pics but I was in a hurry and didn't have glasses on to see it wasn't focused ! My mate has this on his stall but can't I can't help.  Hopefully I can get a point in the right direction. It is only about 5.5 to 6 cm across. Thanks.

Hi Pete,

This is a Murano piece, I've had nearly identical ones in the past but as far as I remember none had their original labels so not sure of the maker.

He thought it was Chinese. I was no more ahead than him but didn't think it was Chinese. Seemed too complicated/neater compared to the Chinese pieces I have seen.  I will head down that route and see what comes up. (Usually a piece I was not looking for  ;D) Thank you.
