Murano Glass Birds Nest.....Seguso?
« on: April 28, 2016, 02:47:26 AM »
Hello,

I recently saw this Murano Glass Birds Nest on the Goodwill site....thought it might be mid century Seguso...anyone have an idea?

Presumably these are not your photos?

Hello John, no, I would think the ShopGoodwill watermark would indicate that....I did buy the piece though....

If you can post you own photos when it arrives that would be great. I can't remember exactly what it looks like now but I thought maybe not Seguso, perhaps Zanetti.

Yes, I will post some better photos...by the way, the Goodwill photos are not copyrighted. Just watermarked.

In at least the UK and USA, all photographs have a default copyright to the photographer. And there is no legal need for a copyright statement or symbol to be used.

However, because of the complications of copyright detail in various countries, the Board position regarding 3rd party photos / images is as stated in the Info, Help, Announcements forum: ADMIN: Using Copyright Material

Hi msiscoe, this is a lovely piece and nicely photographed as well. 
It would be good to have a picture of the base, as there may be a little signature secreted there.
I was thinking of A Zanella, but he often hid his signatures very well.

I was looking at another site for you and found this link, discussing one very similar to yours, and you might find it interesting reading.

Have a look and see what you think.

I've looked over the base very carefully and can find no signature....still a mystery....
