Hi there,
Heres another part of my collection that I was wondering about. Firstly, are they likely to be Murano? Secondly, any ideas on the possible maker?
They measure approx 7" tall. Beaks, crests and base of birds are all clear glass. The beaks and crests have gold inclusions. The body of the birds are coloured glass at the top (ruby and green) that fades into white glass that becomes opalescent in the ends of the wings and tails. I have a feeling the bases could be crystal, they just don't look like normal glass. The bases of the stands are smooth and polished. Again I have no info on age or makers as there is no labels attached and they were bought second hand :o . Would really appreciate any feedback :) Thanks heaps
