Topic: stunning red heavy vase

[SPACEY]

Hi, does this ring any bells?? i love it— but have no idea from where it hails...... It is 19cm's tall x 15 at the widest. Help please :tsk:

Your pictures are way too small. Here is some help on posting pictures and resizing. I suggest you resize (by compressing not cropping) a high resolution picture so that the longest dimension is about 700 pixels.

We also need a base shot please

We need larger pictures to check the finish and a move to the Murano Glass Society. Love those handles. It looks like a scavo finish, but I'm hoping not.

Thanks Anita, I haven't heard of Scarvo at all so am unsure what that is...... will have to look it up. Is it a bad thing? these should be beta resolution. Thanks! amanda :hiclp:

Could you do a base shot and a close up of the hande(s)?

The vase appears to have a scavo or scavo-like finish. Often pieces with this type finish are made for the Venetian tourist trade and are hard to attribute. The handles are nicely done -- a nice display piece. I hope someone can identify it more definitely than I can. (I was hoping to see a bubbly finish)

thanks anita, i will post some more pics of the base when i can (haven't received the vase yet as I just bought it). thanks for your help! amanda

I have a large vase with the same finish in green - and with a V. Nason sticker. No handles, though....

Hi Ivo, that's interesting! could you possibly post a pic of it so I can see. I have done a search under that maker and can't find anything similar. Cheers, amanda :sun:
