Glass Bowl - Czech or Murano?

Post by Adam20 on Fri Jul 15, 2011 5:13 pm

Bought this glass bowl (basket) a while back and posted it on GMB - couldn't ID so I post here to see if I can get anywhere - There was some confusion as to if it was Czech or Murano - any help appreciated

My guess would be Chalet out of Canada, but they signed most of their pieces. The color is certainly correct. Waaah

Chalet Glass out f Canada.... Changed the name to Murano Glass in 1958... 3 artist from Italy started a art glass business in Cornwall... I believe it was 1960 when the business was moved again...

I'm not sure if you'll be able to open this. I really have no idea what I'm doing on the computer. But this might also help... I hope so...

It is a beautiful bowl the link Ed sent was very good Murano style. Because they were from Italy...

Makes sense why you can't tell the difference.

Yes, I think they're beautiful Beating Heart

It was just the 'Cornwall' that confused me, I was thinking Cornwall here and knew that wasn't right Happy .
