I saw this in a local auction with the description being "Murano".
I didn't pay it any more attention as I was after something else, but for some reason I kept thinking about it.
Then I did a really stupid thing, the piece I wanted went for more than I was prepared to pay, so I thought I'd have a go at this 1.
You know whats coming next ?
I completely forgot my own rules.
I got into a bidding contest and ended up paying a lot of money for something I didn't really want, who's the idiot ? :chky:
The weight is large and very heavy, I know little about paperweights, but it seems well made.
shade under 13cm high
9cm wide at the bottom.
Its so heavy I can't imagine it in a nice display cabinet.
