zanetti Murano
Hello
I recently bought this glass sculpture in a junksale, it has a sticker Zanetti-Murano and is signed 'Oscar Zanetti' It is made - as far as I can see - from a jar and other pieces of glass melted on it. Height: about 45cm What could be the value of such a piece? I would be very grateful for any information relating to this strange piece koendelbeke660@hotmail.com Koenchik - Brussels Last edited by koenchik; 05-17-2005 at 09:22 AM..

That is a wild looking piece! I cannot say that I have seen anything similar to this, on an overturned vase. Post some extra pics if you can.
This is their website http://www.zanettimurano.com

signature
Thanks for your reply,
Will try to take some more pictures. This is a close-up of the signature, hope it is readible. Looked at the website. Label is same as the company logo on the site. I understand there are 2 Oskar Zanetti's (grandfather and grandson). I guess this is the son's signature? Koenchik

WOW! WOW! WOW! According to the Italian Glass Century 20 on page 200, Heads like yours made by Zanetti are valued at $4,000.00 to $6,000.00 WAY TO GO!!!

thanks again and again
Hello,
That was a pleasant message! I know very little about (Italian) glass and would never have guessed it was such a valuable piece! I have no idea how to sell it however. I am from Belgium, are there any famous glass fairs in Europe? Or should I sell it in the US? My girlfriend is from Milano-Italy, maybe that is the place to go to? Anyway, thanks again, you certainly made my day Koenchik
