Bowl - Murano?
« on: April 07, 2012, 04:07:51 PM »
This is an impressive large bowl - very thickly bown - it has a clear casing with lovely controled bubbles, white layer then an inner pink layer - I think it is Murano and wonder if anyone can ID it?

I was thinking the same, could just picture it with one of those matching lighters they did.

Thanks - from a quick search I think this is Murano and could be 'Bullicante' by Barbini - there are similar vases on eBay and on research webstites. It is what I was thinking when I bought it, its nice quality - very well made.
