Sorry about that. I would like to know if anyone knows how much it is worth or if not where I would be able to find that information. Thanks. I just posted a pic

Hi Alishia ,please post a picture as that is what is needed ,however I know the statue to which you refer Formia is a prolific maker ,the lover statue has been made by many firms, and in my opinion would make around £50 ,if unsigned.Cliff

Hi again I wrote my reply before pic appeared ,however it is what I expected the value of these is suppressed by the number made ,Venice being the romantic destination it is, many people return home with this figure ,as I said in a post on a similar figure last week I saw a clear version of same statue go for £38 on ebay uk.Cliff

There is a piece that is similar to yours at http://www.murano-glass.co.uk/catego...figurines.aspx. This will give some idea of what an ideal value will be. As Cliff said, the values can be variable, particularly on eBay.

Formia has made similar figures for some years now. They call them Amanti.

I think amanti is Italian for lovers, right? The word looks like it would mean that.
