Help! Does anyone know what these are

By barganbarn210, 19 August, 2010
Description

I have spent hours looking for anything to identify these glass animals. I have had no luck. I have posted the pics here before but no one has responded. I honestly am not sure how this works. I hope someone recognizes them and will share! Thanks.

There are a total of 4 of these glass figures. It is very hard to even tell what each one is. One looks like a dog, another like a pig or an anteater, the other two look like some kind of creatures. They are blueish green & solid glass.

Re: Help! Does anyone know what these are

They are probably Murano glass, the only other examples I've seen like them were made at county fairs by glass blowers in the 1960's, they made them while you watched.
