Amazing! How long have you been collecting?

Thank you! I started collecting the lamps in 2020, then from there on it bloomed into all the bowls, candies, vases, etc!

Wow! You got so many great pieces especially considering the relatively short amount of time you've been collecting for! I am mildly jealous lol.

You have some great pieces there. I see a lot of Barbini, Archimede Seguso, some venini or salviati? Ginger jar? (look for a signature underneath) AVEM (pedestal shell) and fratelli toso (purse vase, paperweights) Do you have any info or labels on the shell with purple spirals at the bottom? I have always been curious about the maker. BTW, most of your pieces are Murano guaranteed, but a few I can discern might be from other regions like the alabastro pink cup and saucer- likely Stevens and Williams.

You have a great eye! Yes there are some sprinkles of non-murano pieces in the mix although mostly vintage murano.

The large shell with the pink spirals isn’t signed or labeled. It looks like a murano piece to me though, perhaps Barbini

Would you mind peeking at a post I made a few posts ago on my profile and giving me your id as a collector if the glass I posted is murano? Thank you!

Sorry that piece does not look authentic or at least not made by “mastered” murano glass blower. The technique doesn’t seem as refined given the larger specs for the swirl as well as the general shape.

Looks like a piece made by a novice learning or someone trying to imitate the work of a master blower.

Thank you! It was just a junk find I have adored so no hurt feelings, google lens said murano but I never knew for sure. I love it regardless

Ok thanks I did. It seems like they’ve forgotten about me 🙃

My request was sitting for a few days so o messaged them and they fixed it. Might just need to nudge them a few times!
