Hello, my new Friends!
My grandmother passed away very recently and part of my inheritance was this "set"--the ruffled vase and a pair of matching ashtrays which she'd had displayed for years. There are no marks whatsoever on these items (other than rough pontils on the ashtray bottoms, smooth on vase bottom), and Gram was pretty fastidious so any stickers would be long gone. These pieces are pristine--no chips, cracks or fractures of any kind.
I've researched these for days, literally, with no luck as I don't even know what to call this kind of glass design. Posted pictures led me here as Murano seems the closest to what I have. Yes? No? If not, does anyone have a clue who the maker might be?
Please help...frustration level has almost reached a level of flinging things off the balcony.
Thanks so much for your time and attention!
