Murano & Italy Glass / Re: A. Seguso millefiori bowls

These paperweights use similar canes sharing a lot of character with the bowls I reckon.

Never seen a large example in the flesh but have had these two bowls through my hands. They are more than the sum of their parts somehow, bright, bold and jaunty.

Glass / Re: Victorian vase with engraved 'signature'

Keith's goblet rim looks heat finished to me rather than cut and polished. This rim is quite round in cross section, gilded on top as well so I can not see it having had a lid. Sorry, that did not show up in my photos, it is small too, would that make it less likely to have been part of a garniture set do you think? I tend to think of them as containing sizeable items but not every mantelpiece is huge.

Thankyou Mosquito,

That's really interesting. Having briefly looked at your helpful links, they are indeed very light.
Fortunately they go well with my Mdina😚 Chalice, as the colour is very Mediterranean Azure.
Very helpful, thanks.

While these plates share some features with older art glass from Walsh Walsh (Pompeian) or Arculus, I think these particular examples are likely to be modern Mexican or Egyptian recycled glass production. This combination of blue colour and seedy glass is certainly seen in contemporary Egyptian production, e.g.: https://www.minujewels.com/products/egyptian-blue-glass-canteen  https://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,42036.0.html

British & Irish Glass / Stuart Stratford Cocktail Shaker
« Last post by NevB on May 27, 2025, 09:19:57 AM »
The Lovedecanters website has one of these described as a cocktail shaker although those tend to have a pouring lip. It's 8 3/4" tall with a cut/etched cockerel and other decoration and has the Stuart mark used from 1926-50.
