Hi there:
Just got this in the mail. Only had for a couple hours.....LOL. Thought I would buy myself a gift here. I am 99.9 % sure this is a Fratelli Toso vase. The bottom has very good wear and a polished pontil. It has stripes in it with Aventurine ( or "copper inclusions ) in it. It is very soft colors. Kinda hard to get a good picture........so I changed out the first pic and tried to put the background black.
It has a tint of blue in the bottom, then goes to white, then to a soft, soft pink at the very top. All the while have mottled stripes of white and Aventurine in it.
Stands at about - Size is:
~ 10 inches tall
~ 4.25 inches wide
~ 8.25 inches long
No label on it but Positive this is Fratelli Toso. Thanks, I got/found at a very good price. Thanks for looking

Many, many thanks Rose for your great links and comment on my Tango post, I wasn't able to thank all so kind contributors before CW delete it :-(
Beautiful, beautiful vase Rosie! Here are a couple of examples with the same shape, so your 99.9% should be changed to 100%...

Yeah Rosie, Svazzos Vase is one of the ones that I sent you. I don't know about the other, but it was also on 1stdibbs. Like you said, Svazzo knows his stuff, he's an expert in Murano, so theres no question it's Fratello Toso
@Rick -- Yeah, he has lots more knowledge I could only hope to have !! LOL
Funny how I always seen to find Fratelli Toso items here moreso.....either that or it just catches my eye. I know BIRKS ( CANADA ) used to sell a lot of Murano art glass and they were the place *to go* when buying quality stuff for gifts for weddings and stuff.
I found this down your way via the Net .....LOL
