<p>[QUOTE="Walter Del Pellegrino, post: 343250, member: 90"]I know practically nothing about glass although I have a few pieces. I responded because of your description. The term "Venetian Glass” fell out of popular use in the late 1930’s and certainly was already considered archaic after World War II (1945). It has been replaced with the term “Murano Glass”. Personally I prefer the tag “Venetian Glass”. It has an elegance to it that “Murano” seems to lack.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
