    Hello I have this lovely glass bird and wonder if it's murano and if it's a collectable one as I have never come across one before now.

      Not Murano, quality isn't there.
    2. Efesgirl Efesgirl, 8 years ago
      Probably Chinese import.

      You would be the one to know efe

      Sorry, but that's the way it is. As Dizzy said, the quality just isn't there. Murano peacocks look much different. See for yourself:

      I meant you always seem to spot the Chinese imports if that's where it's from

      It might be from a lesser known factory in Italy, but I think Asia is the best bet.
