Hello,I hope you can help me with this!
I bought a Leone di San Marco on a auction,but when I received it ,I saw the mark was different!
Here the picture.
It says Mario Mellara?
Can you maybe look at the picture and tell me if this is a fake or made by an other designer?
Thank you very much.
Kind regards Lisa
Dear Lisa,
I am afraid that the signature does not correspond to the Master Mario Badioli. All his sculptures are signed and you can clearly read « Badioli ».
We wrote an article on how to recognize a true Badioli, here the reference: https://www.muranoglassitaly.com/how-to-recognize-original-badioli-sculptures/
Best regards.
