    The large decanter may have been made in a spin mold. You go in from above with a super hot bubble and your assistant closes it and you spin and blow at the same time, thus creating a smooth seamless finish.

      I'm thinking about doing a follow up video and sharing all of the great information viewers have shared. Thanks for the knowledge.

    Camer Glass was an import company based in New York that brought in Murano glass. They also imported at some lighting fixtures by Venini. Different companies made glass for Camer. One Murano company that made a lot of Camer glass was Barbini. I believe that one of the Seguso companies may have also made some Camer glass, though I'm not sure of this.

      Yep, a lot of people use the name of importers as manufactures, Otagiri being one of them. As far as I know Otagiri did create some of their own products, but most of them were just imports. There's another video idea right there: importers vs manufacturers.

    An seiner Stelle würde ich mir mal eine Reportage über Glasbläser in Murano ansehen.

      Wasn't intentional to wear a quite or a loud shirt. lol

      @agomodern It makes sense to be intentional next time to not distract from the beautiful art objects 😉

    Some great pieces. I agree with you that Murano glass pieces have polished bases and if they don't have that it is probably Chinese. My Murano glass pieces are paperweights. I love the latticino glass in them. Also if they are pedestal in form.
    In terms of larger glass from near Italy I like Maltese glass, especially Mdina Blue Summer vases. I sometimes get lost in the blue which reminds me of the Mediterranean and especially the Blue Grotto of Capri! An unearthly neon blue in the Blue Grotto which Emperor's Tiberius favorite swimming hole.

    • @agomodern
      @agomodern  7 місяців тому

      I'll have to look into Maltese glass.

    • @michaelroark2019
      @michaelroark2019 7 місяців тому

      @@agomodern One of Mdina's lines that is very interesting and a bit different is called by the Brits, Helter Skelter. I have one of this vases and it is kinda wild.
      The strangest thing is that I am in a Facebook group for Mdina glass and the original designer of the line, Raymond Sultana of Malta communicated with me about the creation of the line being inspired by sea waves. I hope that you can find some. They are very rare in this country!

    The green is 70's Chalet Art glass, the orange decanter is likely a 70's piece as well.

    • @agomodern
      @agomodern  6 місяців тому

      I actually have a Chalet piece I didn't show that has it etched on the bottom.

  • @traceytansley1659
    @traceytansley1659 6 місяців тому

    The amethyst piece probably was sanded on the bottom.

    Ausserdem ist auf jedem Stück von Murano das Original Siegel drauf ich seh nichts,bin auf den Typen grottensauer weil ich Glas liebe, für mich sind die Glasbläser aus Murano Künstler und dann kommt so ein Möchtegern daher,verschwinde bloss wieder in der Versenkung.
