BEAUTIFUL CLASSIC WHITE OVERSHOT SWAN ASHTRAY WITH A REALLY GREAT GREEN HEAD AND RIBBED NECK. Even though this piece certainly has the look of a FRATELLI TOSO, it is a piece made in the Grangioli Murano Art Glass Style with a label for PD Ware, Made in Italy. This piece is an ashtray, as is evidenced by the fact that there are two spaces in the tail feathers of the Swan feathers for the cigarettes to rest upon. The piece is in excellent condition, and there are no cracks, chips, flea bites, residue, or other damage that I am aware of. The true test of crackle glass is whether or not it floresces in UVB light. The 4th photo shows this piece is lightly florescent in UVB light glowing in a light pink. The piece is very nice, and would make a great addition to any Fratelli Toso collection, even though it is other Italian Glassware, made during the same period during the 1950's as the Fratelli Toso's. This piece is in Excellent, near Mint Condition.
