Irish bottle

[Liam Farrell]

This may astound you Colin ,the first wine bottle you already helped me with.the second being a vase designed by Fulvio Bianconi,who worked and designed Murano glass for the famous Venini company in Italy.this particular vase is extremely rare and very sought after.its acid stamped to the base Venini Murano Italia.its also known as the bikini vase. Salvaged from a demolition site in the mid 1990s, I guess whoever owned it at the time didn’t realise it’s rarity.Sothebys have viewed it and asked if I would put it in a specialist art auction , I declined in 2012.the last piece is a porcelain liquor decanter from the 1920s by Goebel a German Art Deco piece,salvaged from a demolition site in 2004 in Dublin. It’s amazing the treasures out there that are just forgotten about. Finally Colin ,I am lucky that I work for a good Demolition company that allow me to keep my finds. I hope you like the above items and once again thank you for your assistance.
