Question Murano Signed Chinese Coolie Figurines, 15" tall, second a few inches shorter
I have the two above-referenced figurines. They are shaded with ebony color and signed/etched in the glass is the signature of someone I cannot make out. I bought these from an estate auction from the home of a doctor recently nominated for the nobel peace prize. The figurines are gorgeous and perfect. I really don't know what I have. Please let me know what you think.



I just added the Coolies. Additionally I have a Murano vintage aquarium that is perfect. It is 12 X 9.5 X 3.5.

Any info regarding any piece would be greatky apreciated.

Possibly Seguso? But we really need to see photos of the pieces and the signatures.

Looks like the signature of Luigi Onesto.

I don't know about the aquarium. Looks contemporary though. Is that one signed?

Yes, it is signed on the bottom. Looks like "A. Miau - Murano". What do you think?

Doesn't ring a bell. I would need to see the signature.
