    Hello Folks-
    Can anyone help ID this pair? Although the pictures don't show it the base glass color is a deep amethyst. Height is about 6-3/4". No marks of course. The polished bottoms are totally free of wear so they must be newer I'm thinking. Appreciate the help. I'd like to describe them better than Murano with a question mark. Thanks.

    Hm. Problem is, lots of companies make nice art glass birds and nothing is leaping out at me. I suspect decent modern giftware.

    I'd be over the bases with a fine-toothed comb for a mark. Murano is a good guess, but I've seen similar quality birdies with an Ittalla mark. There might be an artisan mark on there somewhere.

    The Murano Glass Collective, a Facebook group I consulted, agrees that they were likely made in Venezuela by ICET Arte Murano.
