A few weeks ago now I saw this bowl at my favourite op shop and checked carefully for any flaws. These pieces can be so easily damaged. But there were no chips at all. It was intact !!!
Of course the little bird is the most fragile element. It is perched on the edge of the bird bath with a quizzical, wary look on its face ready to take flight at any moment.
The pond is dazzling in itself: a vortex of silver foil, yellow and acquamarine.
I suspect that it is AVeM because of the shape of the bird and the hot work to the edges of the bird bath. But I am not sure and would welcone any input.
Kitsch ???
Sure is! But what the heck, I love it !!!
Really very nice, a beauty!
Many thanks DEANO, I really appreciate your comments !!! !! !!!
Beautiful kitsch!
What a lovely piece!!! Little bird is so cute!
What the heck indeed......it's lovely, it's fun and I bet it makes you smile!
Love, Love, Love, love it!! Ya lucky Dog !!!!!
Yes I would say Murano too.............but on a side of Caution: Are you aware that some Murano Artists that came to Canada made some of these for Chalet Art Glass also?? They are Rare for Chalet Glass. I have seen a few of these Chalet pieces. I still think yours in the Murano one, but I just wanted to point this out as an "" FYI "" to ya Vet and the CW board
Here is one posted on CW:
