[QUOTE="Irenka, post: 9426534, member: 18829"]Hello again! :happy: This time I have a problem with this wonderful flower pot: [ATTACH=full]434151[/ATTACH] I bought it in the north of Italy, and since it is near Venice, of course all sellers claim that their things are Venetian or, if they are made of glass, they are made of Murano glass. I've already gotten used to having to thoroughly investigate such guesses from the sellers themselves. The seller also claimed that the pot is from the 19th century, it is possible, but I am not very familiar with this type of antiques, so I would really like to ask you for help, how can I recognize the age of these things, what should I pay attention to? The pot has some very good repairs, apparently at some point the base was broken and it was refinished.. [ATTACH=full]434154[/ATTACH] There is also a depiction of a "coat of arms" in the middle of the pot, would that help in determining where and when it is from? [ATTACH=full]434156[/ATTACH] Overall, it's a very nice pot and I'd really like to know a bit more about it... After doing some research, I just have a few more questions, as it seems French, German, and even Dutch could be the countries of origin, but of course there's also the possibility , that it is Italian... Measurements: 33cm/13in x 37cm/14,5in x 46cm/18in What do you think about this pot? Does anyone have any ideas on how to proceed? Sincere thanks to everyone!
