I paid 10.00 for this at a tag sale. Pics are attached. The brown blobs on the inside are coper/metalic in appearence. there are a few small black spots throughout the inside. No marking or stickers.

Fratelli Toso made many similar organic shaped bowls in the 60's, with gold or copper foils and powders dispersed througout the bowl. If the quality is consistent, I would venture that it is a Toso bowl, worth between $40-$60.

Thanks very much. Is there a book you can recoment that would give me a good overview of Murano glass? I am new to collecting and havent found any at my local bookstore.
