Allan Scott 'Deacons' Dahlia paperweight?

[ALLAN]

HI Leni,
           I am glad you love the weight so much,You  have no idea how much it means to us poor glassmakers to know that someone out there appreciates our work.As long as the the base of your weight does not have any sharp edges I would not recommend that you get it finished as this,(In my opinion),would detract from its mystery and would just look like it was a mistake from the beginning.It is scary to think I made that flower over 20yrs ago,never mind time flies as they say, lol.You will have to look out for more of my weights in the future, especially about the time of the Scottish Glass Society exhibitions,when I get the chance to make "one-offs"for myself.(might not be as cheap as your Dahlia though,Ha-Ha!).Anyway I hope you carry on collecting paperweights happily for many years to come,whether they are mine or not.I will always be happy to talk to anybody about paperweights at any time,that goes for anyone reading this by the way.....Happy collecting.....Allan

Allan, it would be really great if you could post a message here telling us when that is coming up!  

I know many of us here would love to know and to be able to keep our eyes open for more of your weights!   :shock:

Thank you very much again for all your help!
