Camer Glass - Murano Chandelier

[ingpublic]

I just inherited this chandelier and I am wondering if anyone knew the value. It is supposedly Model N-3360 from the 1960's. Imported by Camer. I am inclined to sell it if I could find the value. The condition is very good to excellent.

Thanks in advance...

I guess ingpublic is looking to make a quick flip?

Camer was a well known importer, it was probably made by one of the better known houses in Murano. I have seen a similar chandelier, banded with lattino but don't remember who made it.....

I believe they are made to be reminiscent of Easter or Cala lillies.

Just to reinforce Glassman's point about Camer. I have a Camer chandelier that may be a Venini. I bought it on eBay for not too much, but it was a risk. Ebay chandeliers don't seem to do that well because of the risk factor. If one of glass piece is broken, you're out of luck.

There's a NY antique store, Venfield, that sells old Murano chandeliers. It's at http://venfield.1stdibs.com/search.php?cat=B

Worth looking at and gasping at the quality and the prices. I wonder if they would be interested in your chandelier? Even if you got 1/2 of what they were selling it for, you'd be getting more more than you'd get on eBay.

Thanks for posting the link to the chandeliers, I was not aware of the company or site. There seems to be volumes written on Murano, but very little information on lighting. I will add the link to the Murano sites thread so it doesn't get lost in the forums.
