Paperweights are a big seller. At the age of 6 my family spent most of the Summer of 1970 driving throughout Europe including Venice & to the island of Murano to the glass factory. My parents bought me a few things along the way. When we were on Murano, I picked out a glass paperweight which is clear glass with a multitude of what looks like colored flowers set in the glass. The “flowers” resemble what you referred too as buttons and beads. I still have it today more than 51 years later.
That is awesome! Sounds like a blast
Love the keys on the wall.
Amber is a great decorator
Again, love it...great staying in the glass vein...thank you again for sharing your research and time...
Absolutely Michelle! Glad you liked it
What an amazing selection of photographs,I had only seen the sweet piece.The rest I have never seen..incredible.
It was some amazing glass 🙂
I don't think I've ever seen Morano glass. So beautiful. Thank you, Mike, for showing this to us and helping me learn.
Absolutely! Glad you found value in it, thanks for watching Cern
Great video. Very informative. However, the adorable dog on the couch stole the show. Lol😊
Thanks Ann! He always does 🙂🙂
Your dog stealed the show so cute with all of his wrinkles sleeping
Figured it would happen. He makes appearances in the next few videos as well
This may be the end for Murano. I read an article that said most of the glassmakers are having to close down because of the high cost of gas to fuel the furnaces. They have to be kept burning 24/7, and consume enormous amounts.
That would be a tragedy
I enjoy your presentation. It was so much fun on Marano….Cool dog, I want one…. He he …. Giggles…… smile.!
He looks very squishy and huggable….. adorable….. so cute…… I want one of his puppies….
Yea he is a great dog!! Thanks for watching
Nice glasses Very sophistocated.I will be checking to see what the sweet dog has learned..
Norman made an appearance in a few videos coming up as well 🐶🙂
Big fan of your videos! You break down and explain antique stuff in a way that’s really detailed but still easy to follow along with. Keep it up! 😎
Thanks John! Really appreciate the compliments
I used to have my Murano up for sale, but decided to just collect it because I value the pieces way more than I could get for them. Like you said, value is just going to go up, and if not, it's because of ignorance and a lack of people with a good eye. I've done 2 videos showing my colletion and need to get producing my third video.
Would love to see the videos! Send me a link
This is a great video! I learned so much about Murano glass from you. The glassmakers there put on “shows” for tourists back in 1980. (Maybe they still do.) My family was on a bus tour of Europe, and we went to one of these. It was fascinating! I was young, so I didn’t buy anything, but I would have if I could. One man worked on a piece of glass while another one explained, in English, what he was doing. It was interesting and humorous, and it was one of the highlights of the trip for me. We saw many examples of their work. All of it was absolutely beautiful. I liked the vases, chandeliers and mirrors best, and still do. Maybe I’ll buy a piece or two now. I have a new appreciation for it, thanks to you!
That sounds like a lot of fun! Glad you enjoyed the video
@@66uniqueantiques It was fun! I learn something whenever I watch your videos, but this one brought back a good memory, too ☺️
That’s always good to hear
Great video! Lot of history! I knew about the island...but you explained a lot more! Thank you! I at least want one Murano piece....It has to speak to me. I like the gold n silver flecks. Your pronunciations sounded
great! Going forward w Tiffany sounds awesome.
I really like that pulled feather... favril... I think. So beautiful! I'm getting there...love to learn! I thought I saw some wonderful glass behind your register in a video! You confirmed. Can't wait for the upcoming video!
Thank you again. Really hoping to head north to visit your shop this summer! Great family participation...!!! 😊
Thanks Dee! Maybe see you this summer 🙂
Thanks for this. I love your demeanor. You’re humble and kind, with good humor and not condescending. It’s fun to learn from you! I just came back from Italy and was anxious to learn about Murano glass. I’ll be going back better informed thanks to your great video. 😊
Thanks Jackie! Appreciate the kind words and for watching the video 🙂
Very nice! I absolutely love the half moon piece that sold on ebay! Great video!
Thanks amber!
Thanks so much for your videos!
Thanks for watching
Love your videos! Excellent. Thank you!
Thanks J!
Love the information. They sell murano here in Florida at the auction. And pronunciation is amazing
Thanks! 🙂
I collect millefiori paperweights, a friend introduced me to them many years ago. The majority in my collection are Murano but I also have some Caithness, Perthshire, and Gentile Glass (WV)
Nice!! A great thing to collect
When you mentioned Murano dogs, your dog awoke….then looked outside…appearing bored!
Haha he knows certain words really well 😂😂
Thank you
Thanks for watching
Good info, thanks
Thanks Nik!
Great info.. thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I collect the clowns, birds, and some of the twirls 😊 and other pieces ❤
That’s awesome! Couldn’t of picked a better thing to collect they are so cool
I hope you know your stuff. Animals and clowns are highly, highly copied. I always say that if you see a particular design flooding the market, then it's mostly fakes.
Awesome video
Thanks Billy!
I love watching you.
Thanks!
That lazy dog lol 😂
Yup he is quite lazy 😂😂
I love your collecting 101 videos! I’d love to see a video on collectible playing cards if you ever get a chance!
Ok Like bicycle cards?
@@66uniqueantiques Yup! I know there are a ton out there, but can’t find what makes one more valuable than another. I’d love to hear your take!
I’ll add it to the list and get to work 🙂
@@66uniqueantiques AWESOME!! Can’t wait :)
great vid, i, however, am fond of the typical " end of day" glass, sooner glass, and some of the styles from Israel, Negev desert sold recently in Canada
I also enjoy the end of day glass. Very unique
I still don't know if I have a piece of Murano Glass. I guess I'm missing something not understanding or something. Ok, I just followed the web site you posted and yes I have a very popular piece of Murano Glass it's a swan candy dish. Well some are saying candy dish. There's a lot of them a lot of different colors but I did not see one with the color that I have. I have two of them. My mother just passed away left each one of us storage unit and I'm finding a lot of stuff and I don't know what to do with. But thank you for your talk on this glass. I need to figure out a price now there were a lot of different prices. Thank you
Research will be your best friend and hopefully that gets you to more answers
One reason glass was moved to the island of Murano was because of the danger of fire.
I am going to Venice in June. Are all Murano glass pieces of the same quality?
Awesome! Yes as long as they are original
Hello, I need help, my dad left me murano glass. I don’t know where to start to sell or see how much it’s worth. You mentioned a link, does this $25 let you show more than one item?
Start checking eBay sold listings and research online through google will help
Have several pieces, over 20, that we inherited and need help with era, we think 50s, but don't know.
That’s awesome!! Research will be your best friend it has helped me out a lot
Very informative . Is there any way to tell the dates of production without the COA ? How do you know if it is older than 1980 .
That’s the hard part as an expert is needed for confirmation. 40% of the Murano is counterfeit which is a crazy high number
@@66uniqueantiques And probably climbing daily. Too many countries making copies for one little island to keep up. For the most part, I think getting an appraisal is only good for insurance purposes. I wouldn't trust an appraisal of Murano glass any more than I would trust my own research.
Are there places in Murano that you can purchase online pieces that are legitimate?? I don’t know that I would trust buying on EBay or Etsy.
It is tough cause you want to do the proper research but have to rely on the seller to have that info for you
Photos please
There was a lot of photos in the video
Are there any markings ?
Signatures, labels or stamps but some don’t have any at all
@@66uniqueantiques Yep, most pieces had paper labels, so easily washed off or removed.
Doggie!
🐶🙂
Great voice & history but need much LESS face-time & MORE sample pics.😁
Will work on that thanks for watching
I just picked up a small flower bowl for $1.99 at salvation army may be worth up to $500.00
That’s awesome! Great job Rolando
Like nuclear physics….
I absolutely admire & love their chandeliers and mirrors 🪞 ❤️.
They are always breathtaking and unique. I would love to have some. However, I don't have a ceiling high enough for the big chandeliers I'd like to have lol.
Same here lol but man what beauty
