Does anyone know anything about this perfume bottle...? When I purchased it (used), it had a little gold sticker on bottom that said "Murano, Italy" or something to that effect. However, the blue "cardboard box" it came in smacked of "Chinese knock-off..." (I just purchased a "knock-off" from E-Bay and its "craftsmanship" was so very poor that it looked like whoever "crafted" it was quite literally "blind..." Does anyone know the real story on the original Murano bottle of this design...? I would love to purchase another one that was actually made in Murano, Italy. Can anyone help...? Thank you in advance..... geraldalann@gmail.com

I know very little about Murano glass but what you purchased is VERY beautiful. I would like to know as well and would like to have one just like this!!
Judith Miller covers Murano Glass in some of her Antique Reference books. I laughed when I read your description about the craftsmanship. I will keep my eye out for you to try to track the original design. I think it would have been 20's by the look of this design.
