Murano Purple, Yellow & White Millefiori Canes Glass Vase

Description

This is a magnificent Venetian glass miniature vase, or possibly a decorative perfume bottle missing the stopper, made on the island of Murano, near Venice, Italy. Made up of loads of white, purple and yellow floral millefiori murrine canes. Previously thought to have been made by Fratelli Toso, but we are now unsure, as this style of cane is shown in an Effetre catalogue, and similar pieces have also been seen with Bucella Cristalli labels.

Size

Measures approx 4 inches tall by 2 inches in diameter at widest point.

Condition

Excellent condition, no chips or cracks.
