I haven't seen this exact bird, but the sculpture is very similar to some opalescent ones I have seen by Alfredo Barbini. I would say it probably is Murano and may be Barbini. They did several large birds with tails that curled like your bird does. The style can be copied, so it would be great if you could find the exact design by searching online. Maybe someone will know for sure if it is Barbini.

thank you for the helpful information on these two birds within 5 minutes of looking bardini I found a total of two others differnt colors they say they are rare so now I am trying to find a general estimate on value but still searching. But thank you you are wonderful.
