    I've never seen such a vase before and this is a mystery for myself why I purchased it.
    Yesterday we went to a huge flea market ,two hours drive from our place.There was plenty of different glass,but I didn't buy what I really wanted.Another mystery why.I couldn't make up my mind ,when I eventually decided it was too late - someone else was faster.
    In a word,I wasn't satisfied and perhaps I bought it to have a souvenir from our trip and perhaps I gave in to seller's marketing skills.
    After long searching,I googled one vase with applied fish on ebay,which was described as Murano...Chinese Murano?Romanian?
    Alghough it's handmade and got a rough pontil,I don't suspect it of being Murano.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks for looking.

      Dear Ivonne magnificent glass really. I am quite sure it is not Italian, I do not think it is Chinese because it looks wider and heavier than the chinese glass I know perhaps some small English studio=)

      I'm sure lots of us sympathise with your day and the outcome.....purchasing a second best because you had to get something! Right?
      It's not a second best Ivonne and I can see why you got it. I don't think it's Chinese - they just don't do that colour or that sort of fine twisted moulding.
      I'm wondering too about the Romanian glass...it seems well made like this.
      I hope you learn to love this, and if not, it's a memory piece of your day!!
