I resized it so we could see it better, looks a little blurry. Check very carefully with a loupe or magnifying glass for any marks that may be inscribed on it. That's it for now, I gotta get ready to go to. Catch ya later.

I see these all the time at the thrift stores, In all of my hunts I have only found one vase labeled murano, it still had the sticker, I find it hard to believe that these are murano. If they are murano why are they selling for so cheap? ???

These swans were made in several small glass factorys in eastern oklahoma (leflore county). they are not in business now(high natural gas prices). My wifes brother made thousands of these and other designs.

I picked one of these up last year at a garage sale and when I got home the beak had chipped. So in an artistic moment, I cut slices out of the neck, repolished and wired into a necklass plus several other pieces of jewelry. Made more than I ever could have selling as a vase. I have a couple more I plan to do the same with if I ever have the time.
