I received 2 vases, carafes, glass art or whatever you want to call it from an inheritance from a family member, but I have no understanding of glassware at all, so I would like to know more about it. Whoever they came from loved antiques and exclusive pieces and they have been on the shelf for a very long time, so I think they are from the mid 20th century. I'm not sure about the latter and I've already searched with the photos on google lens for comparable models but no result, unfortunately there is no engraving in it either.
I don't really care about the value because I want to keep them myself, but could someone give some more information about these objects? I would love to learn more about the origin, brand, type, which glass blower, etc. I hope you can help me on my way, thanks in advance!

It looks a bit like Murano's Sommerso series, but is it actually Murano.....?

Thank you Collecteur good tip and I just looked it up. The shape could indeed be possible, but I can't find anything similar on the internet where the glass is also melted in strands around it, it seems to me that these are the only two. So also no idea if they are genuine, I read that the master glassmakers of Murano signed it,

Murano seems to me to be very plausible indeed, given its color scheme and lush shape. But whether the sommerso glass blowing technique has been used (which Collectioneur does not claim of course, but that is entirely beside the point), is difficult to determine, because the jugs (???) are unfortunately barely transparent.

FransM1959:
Do you already know something more? I am very curious!

In any case, they are very beautiful glass objects, very nice examples of craftsmanship!
