beautifulo…

I recently picked this beautiful cup and saucer at an estate sale and it looks like it is bohemian glass but could not find anything like it on ebay. Could it be Moser? I was hoping to get some information about it. It is hand blown and hand painted with a lovely Venetian lady on the front of the dainty cup. It is a small cup and saucer with no chips, cracks.
As always, thank you in advance!
Hi IMHO The Venitian lady and especially the pole behind her (used for moring gondolas) makes me think this is Italian probably from Murano .
Oz may be right. Keep in mind that Bohemia wasn't the only place in Europe where nicely enameled glassware was made.
The enameling has a very different look from Moser; this one is a bit heavier, though still nicely done.
Beautiful :-)
I also agree about its Italian origin, wonderful
