Maybe to protect musical instruments builders in Italy from competition? Interesting.
Hope that this finds its right home, whether a museum or some lucky person. I am a bit perplexed at the possible rule that "You can't ship...
Cannot speak to the glass, but agree that the base is not older. I would put the base at 1970's to present, probably on the more recent end....
It is a stunning clip. You can see the quality in it. The open backs, the leaf settings on the larger round stones are just gorgeous. I'm sure...
You can look up "Dresden Lace" although most Dresden lace figures I've seen are a bit different. Probably Japan or Germany. Definitely vintage.

Evelyb, should I try washing this? If yes, any tips?
