Hello My name is Anna, I wanted to know if anyone knows anything about this pic of Glass art it says Lavorazione A Mano Cristalleria Arzanese made in Italy. It looks like a napkin or letter holder, I like it it's kinda cool. I am going to sell it if I can find anything about it and it's worth me selling. Does anyone know anything about it? Hey OZ my Australia friend how about you I think this is your genre I Think? HELP? Thank you for looking! Anna

Ciao Anna! I've not seen this form before but at first glance I reckon you have its function right. It looks like the company is based in Naples. They have been established for forty years, specialising in blown glass and crystal. Imperatore is the trade name and their web site is here:

Hope this helps!

THANK YOU, OZMARTY AND VETRAIO50, YOU GUYS ARE ONE OF THE BEST !!! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!!ANNA
I believe this is a bomboniere, it would have been placed on a table at an Italian wedding as a gift for the guest, probably with a napkin full of sweets. I was recently given one of these by an elderly italian woman who kept it from a friend's wedding in the late 1960s..same manufacturer, different design. Mine also looks like a glass Taco, but it has a silver stand under it.
