I looked up mis-spellings for iridescent, and then looked for candlesticks, and when I saw that one, I remembered that Ivo thought it could be Murano, so....hey presto!!  Just luck really! Hope you get some good info from the seller. :X:

Rosie, unfortunitly the ebay seller didnt get back to me with any info, and I havent had any time over the last couple of weeks to get any work done on this one. So I was still stuck on a positive ID.
But with Anita and JohnPhillip both agreeing appears you where completly in the right direction Rosie  :thup:
John which books have you seen them in ??, unfortunitly i dont have a great deal of books on Venetian glass yet.
Many thanks to everybody for their help on this one.

This lovely vase seems to have the same delicacy as your candleabra Michelle:

Hi all
ive been doing quite a bit of digging on this, and so far im pretty convinced its Salviati, ive now come accross quite a large number of Salviati pieces with the same base, also the knop appears to be the same too.
I recently got to handle a piece (a large Salviati fish) and again the base was the same and the actual feel was very very similar to my candleholder.
Ive looked into AVEM and havent managed to find anything similar
Barovier ive found a couple of similar bases but nothing style wise thats similar
many thanks
michelle
