    I bought these beauties at an estate sale today. I know very little about about Art glass, but, couldn't take my eyes off of them! The perfume bottle on the left is bluish purple with cranberry and yellow. It is 12" tall and signed. I can't make out the name. Does anyone know? The perfume on the right is cobalt, green and yellow hexagon and is 12.5" tall. It looks to be signed by J Jober? I'll take any education anyone can offer!

      Hi - You have a pair of stunning Sommerso perfume bottles. They're huge! Here's an article about different Murano techniques.

      http://www.ebay.com/gds/How-to-Recognize-MURANO-GLASS-Manufacturing-Techniques-/10000000176900575/g.html

      Congratulations on your pieces, they're just beautiful.
    2. Gillian, 8 years ago
      Were they sold to you as Murano pieces?
    3. Tessie2you, 8 years ago
      They were not sold as Murano. Do you recognize the signatures? What would you guess the value of these to be? They do not have damage or repairs. I don't not feel like I overpaid......

      I saw a hexagon vase that that was mandruzzato that looked similar to these bottles. Could they be Mandruzzato Summerso?
    5. Gillian, 8 years ago
      I just did an image search on Mandruzzato sommerso -

      https://www.google.ca/search?q=mandruzzato+sommerso&client=ubuntu&hs=XAt&channel=fs&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi93u-RuprSAhWL5oMKHf9bATIQ_AUICCgB&biw=1700&bih=874#imgrc=_

      I don't think your perfumes are Mandruzzato because yours have their own signatures. I don't recognize the signatures on your pieces I'm afraid. Not all pieces were signed, and I would encourage you to do some research on Sommeso perfume bottles to see if you can find signatures that look like yours.

      Those letters on yours could be many different ones - a looped L, or an H, I don't think there's a B in there though.

      CW does not offer appraisals - you can look on eBay for comparables.

      All the best.

      Looks like Vetreria Artistica Oball to me.
