I just wanted to show you some lovely FM objects that I have bought recently.

The turtle is beatiful with its grey effect, the penguin (as a waiter) reminds me
of the penguins in the Disney movie "Mary Poppins" and finally the lovely penguin pair.

:hiclp: Thanks very good site much enjoyed...

May I post this link here http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,18410.0.html as to a FM item ID by Inca.  On the FM site post number #573 has a very similar head as to mine..

And again  :hiclp: on that FM site.  Thanks

On the FM site post number #573 has a very similar head as to mine.
I have now also learnt that Luigi Barbaro worked for FM at the end of the
1960's/the beginning of the 1970's, he is the brother of Alessandro Barbaro
http://www.signoretti.it/inglese/barbaro.asp

The bird in post number #573 is actually from a glassworks called Ölandshyttan (Borgholm, Öland, Sweden).
Luigi Barbaro came to Ölandshyttan approx.1975 and he worked there on and off over a period of approx. 10-15 years.


So all I can say is that your pelican most likely is FM but I can't confirm it.

Thank you Ingela, and all your colleagues at the GMB.
You are all the most generous people I have come across in a long time. 
Thank you for all your help this year, and Frank, I haven't forgotten your pictures, as soon as I know you are settled in your new home, I will get them off to you.
 
Happy Christmas, and may 2009 be a healthy and peaceful new year for you all. :ghug:
Rosie.

Oh Ingela, I meant to tell you that I bought another elephant.....the same model as the one with the poor broken trunk.  He came all the way from Germany, beautifully and carefully packed, and is sitting next to the one with the broken trunk.........I have now also got a cat, a duck, and a bird, in the same black/grey quilted finish, with the bubble inclusions, so I think we can safely say I am 'hooked'!! ( Don't tell my husband, but there is another elephant on eBay!!!)

I like these too! It's nice to have a varied collection of FM
and not only animal figurines. Having said that I will now
include two FM/Marcolin birds for you! ;) Favourites of mine!
