Heavy Blue & Yellow Vase 8in tall

Post by heygarth54 on Fri Sep 10, 2010 3:53 pm

Picked up this rather nice vase today, it is 8in tall, unmarked on the base (the center picture is an image of the vase upside down. Does anyone have any clues as to origin ?

Mandruzzato, Murano, would be my best guess.

Looks like you were spot-on Nic, did a Google image search for Mandruzzato and the exact same vase appeared, same colours and shape but slightly larger at 10ins, described as vintage although I would have though it to be fairly modern. Thanks again.

This particular colour combination doesn't seem to be in production any more, although the shape is still being made:

But it is still quite modern.
