    Murano Black Copper Aventurine Art Glass Cat. That is all I know about it. I have looked and can't find another one like it.
    Measures almost 5½" in height.
    Sadly it has some scratches and scrapes, but still a beautiful piece. I love how it sparkles in the light.

      Possibly, Nason & C. black Murano glass vase with copper Aventurine inclusions, from their 'Avventurina' range, labelled.

      I think I have found a relative of my cat! So similar in style and technique.
      Thanks so much for loving my Japanese three handled vessel from goodness knows how many years ago, because if you hadn’t, I wouldn’t have found the cat.
      Received wisdom seems to suggest that mine is Murano I really don’t know much about it but I think it’s beautiful.
      Thank you very much again.
