I just got this Italian glass bowl for quite a nice price. It is not acid stamped at the bottom as I have seen in other Venini stuff from the 50s (we've got a simmilar one stamped with the classic three lines Venini/Murano/Italy, with the same size and slightly different latizzino work), but it has got the remains of a sticker. Can anyone tell me when these stickers were used so I can date back this lovely bowl? Also, is there a known designer for these kind of bowls? I've been told that Paolo Venini himself did but... just to be sure.
Thanks!!!
Nice bowl austro. Not sure about these "etichette".
But have you come across these pages?
Off topic, but on.....

I think originally the shape /design is by Carlo Scarpa circa 1935.
Thanks all for your loves.
Vetraio, I have found the same Venini sticker in here, only complete: http://www.20thcenturyglass.com/glass_encyclopedia/glass_labels/glass_labels.htm. Thanks for the links... I know someone's getting very happy to see it when I show it to him :)
Ozmarty, yes, the shape does remind me of some Scarpa work. We've got a simmilar shaped only much bigger one from the 50s/60s... I'll try and take a picture of it just in case someone can identify it.
stunning bowl:)
