<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Danse17, post: 4494454, member: 77174&quot;]I am trying to find more out about this beautiful piece of glass made in 1961 and signed by Romano Tosi, the founder of the famous FRATELLI TOSI Venitian mirror making firm. I can&#039;t find any pieces made by Romano only by other members of the family and nothing as old as this piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>It stands about 21cm high, is in excellent condition and undamaged,- if a little dusty.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s my mothers and I need to insure it. Any ideas of rarity and value?</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s not just value, it&#039;s also about the maker, the company website has little about him and I&#039;m struggling to find much else- I&#039;d also like to see other examples of his work.</p><p>I found that Romano once worked in the V.A.M.S.A. glassworks, as a master-craftsman, better-known as &quot;Mamaracio&quot;. Great names such as Walter Furlan were apprenticed to him there in the early 50&#039;s.</p><p><br /></p><p>All the pieces I&#039;ve seen online have been many £££££ but none of them look anything like this more traditional style.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any help much appreciated Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
