Title: bird - Murano?
Post by: inca on February 16, 2007, 01:30:57 AM

Hi,

I bought this bird recently. No label and no signature. Could it be Murano?
If so, who made it?  Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi,
if you mean the pink one, I think yes. There are some birds with silver leaf inside imported from far east, butin this one the leaf is gold and also some details of the colours look as "from home". So IMHO it is Murano made.

Sincerely
