Murano Controlled Bubble Paperweight Frattin?

[allaboutjo]

Hello all, my first post, but have "lurked" around the boards for a while. I stumbled across this pretty cool paperweight at local auction. It has the general murano sticker, but the signature on the bottom seems to be that of frattin. Am I correct on this? I could not find any searches showing a similar paperweight online so thought that maybe someone on the boards would be able to help out.

I do know I had a piece by Sandro Frattin , and it too had a generic sticker in addition to his signiture.

Def interested to see what the old timers ( no pun intended...lol ) have to say.

welcome =)

Thank you Garry. I appreciate your information. Makes me feel a little better about the current sticker being on the piece. Did your frattin signature look pretty close to the piece I have?

No, mine was a bubble bowl.

They had one on ebay with a fish on it , but mine was just a bowl.

Mine sold for $65 , I got it at a yard sale for $3 , so i was happy
