    I think it's a swan , but some bird for sure . Has some iridescence to it on the inside , love the orange body ; what is term for this kind of Glass technique please ? There is a waffling press look to the tail , stands 7" base to top of neck (tallest point) and 8 1/2" wide from wing to wing , chest to tail tip is 6 3/4 " and ground base is 1 3/4 round . No markings present , would like to know if it's Murano Glass and who I could attribute to ? Thank you for your thoughts and help .

      No Pat, unfortunately it's not Murano but Chinese. It has the tell-tale, roughly finished, frosted bottom with a white ring. Still a nice dish though.

      The iridescence is what grabbed me on this piece , nice colors play on it .
