Marco Polo – Bottle with Jewel Stopper, from the Venice and the Orient Collection
de Majo, 1989
Engraved signature: “de Majo Murano Y. Ohira - 1991”

Literature:
Venice and the Orient Collection. Bottles with Jewel Stoppers by Y. Ohira, Vetreria de Majo Murano, Mythos Division, Production Catalogue, 1987, p. 34.
