Featured Glass Peacock and Swan

LOVE the peacock ! Id guess the swan is Murano.

 

The peacock may be a lid to a trinket box or candy dish and would be lovely just as it is, catching the light on a window sill.

Seasons Greetings to all with gratitude for the valuable lessons I have learned from each of you.

 

I think this might be a match to your peacock:

I've seen these before, and in addition to colored and non-colored versions, I believe there are also clear glass (non-lead crystal) and lead crystal versions.

 

Used to,but there seems to be 8 jillion pieces out there now ! Im picking up lovely stuff for pennies . I just picked this lovely red vase up at a professionally run estate sale for $10 .

 

The Swan is cute, I think likely vintage Italian. With the pen for scale, looks to be just 6". Here is sort of a similar one, size-wise.

Agree with Johnny that Murano is way down. Just has to be the very best makers bring the $$.

 

I am no help here, but love the peacock. Swans are starting to be the thing to have again near as I can tell with some styles. I remember my grandmother had a few in that Lenox creamy color.

 

I've had that peacock, labelled. Got about fifteen quid for it, I think. Swan is lampwork, possibly Italian.

 

I never knew that Davey. Very interesting.

 

Makes you wonder who gifted them with birds. A city slicker no doubt. A seagull once stole my lunch in an outdoor restaurant in the Bahamas. They were bold, just jumped up on the table and started eating. They know how to find food and trawlers are a big buffet. That's sad about the lost lives.

 

I was a Sea World in San Diego CA, had a hot dog in my hand. I felt someone knock on my shoulder and my hot dog was gone. A sea gull swung in over my shoulder and stole it!

 

Around here we have a lot of man made ponds that are nice to sit near when the weather is good. They have some benches to enjoy the view.
Don't dare bring your sammich, the birds there will come rushing over to you on the bench and attack you and your sammich. They are not messing around.

 

I love the peacock !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
