Some of the Ann Primrose collection look pretty nice. For example, this toucan is lovely: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=120896766571. I know that most of the Primrose "Murano" collection was made in China. I believe that all of this glass is. But still it is pretty to look at.

That parrot is nice and the colors may be to someone's preference so I agree that all Chinese isn't all poorly made.
I just wish that maker won't ride the coat tails of Italian Murano without using the word Murano. Regards, Jason |

If anyone is interested in seeing the things being sold in the Ann Primrose Collection, check out http://www.annprimrose.com/Apstore/. Good to learn the looks of these pieces.

I just looked at all the things. I have one of the marlins in blue. It has a store type made in China label on bottom -- picture below. So the design isn't exclusive to Ann Primrose. $180! And just to think I was going to donate it to the local mission on my next trip. Guess I'll have to wait a couple of trips before I do.
I have become increasingly suspicious that anything that looks like Formia, but isn't, is Chinese. That may not be true, but the Chinese do like to make Formia-like things.
