Hi:
I just bought this for myself for a Birthday gift to myself ( on the 8th ) and I just got today. It is a murano CENEDESE Art glass bowl that is BIG AND HEAVY. It weighs almost 16 pounds. The size is:
13 inches long
~ About 7 inches wide at widest point
~ About 6.25 inches tall
~ and again, about 7.25 Kg or about 16 pounds
It does have the older Cenedese Label on it...and I did buy it from the orginal owner that bought it in the early 1960's at a Hudson Bay Store in Canada. I never knew that Hudson Bay Store in Canada sold, Murano - so an interesting fact. Again very SOLID piece...LOL
Thanks in advance. :-*

Thank you Lustrousstone for the wonderful comment. I have not tested it as my light went Kerpunk....LOL.
I have been looking around for something similar and the ontly thing I found similar so far this this piece at Ripley Auctions. It also has a pedestal base like mine. See SEE HERE (https://www.ripleyauctions.com/item/cenedese-murano-tri-color-art-glass-vase/) and here is a closer pic of it too See HERE, CLICK (http://auctions.ripleyauctions.com/Full/260/56260.jpg)
...Plus mine still has the Cenedese label remnants to it ;)

Those links above show the exact same raised grooved base as mine. Not finding much others like that..

My own efforts have been a total disaster so I am pleased someone is buying great pieces.
