Product Number: WS13644
Sold / Reference
Description
A stunning
Scandinavian
style purple cased glass vase or candle holder with opal white interior casing. Despite the fact that it still bears a very worn label that reads
Cristal Murano
, I believe this piece was made in the Italian region of
Empoli
. The style is more fitting for Empoli glassware, and factories from that region were known to sometimes label their products as Murano, a little "white lie" to make them more appealing to buyers or retailers at the time. Interestingly, this design is also very similar to a design by
Alfred Taube
of Germany.
Size
Measures approx 7 inches tall by 3.5 inches in diameter at widest point.
Condition
Excellent condition, no chips or cracks, just a couple of small surface scratches.
