Murano glass??

[goldinmypan]

I found this glass tea pot?? at a sale late on sunday. Its hand painted with the signature on the bottom. There was also a small vase that was with it also hand painted but in green glass and it had a murano paper sticker. Does anyone reconize the signature and would you call it a tea pot or ?? Pot is 7" and glass is 3 1/2" high



My camera's battery died before I could get shots of the vase.

lav. a. Mano translates roughly to "hand made or made by hand. The A.Z. would be the artists initials. It could be a tea or even a chocolate pot. It is an Italian piece of art glass. I have seen similar (ruby red with 24k gold and hand painted enameling) pieces like this before. I read about someone who purchased theirs in Venice in the 60's, it was a vase or decanter I believe. Same exact styling. Here is a piece on eBay with a very similar decoration like yours. Of course I have never heard the term "Bohemian Murano" so I don't know what that's about, maybe he just fishing with key words in his listing.
