Hi Rhys.
I am still looking into it for you.
There are 1000,s of glass manufactures that have evolved over a great many years on the Irelands of Murano.
I am looking into some of the most famous ones back in the day to see if I can pin down a maker of paperweights.
Paolo Venini/Dino Martens/Favio Poli/Vulvio Biaconi/to name but a few.
I will not give up on this subject so will take time.
Regards Kev.

Possibly the story may be true then.
I've been to the Vatican, it is incredible to see, but as a tourist I'm sure you only see 10% of what it's really like

Hi Kev,

How's the goose chase going?

You must have the patience of a Saint.
