Hi Ray

All are really excellent....I would have to agree with your choice plus the next one down...the Ozone Layer. ...... actually any one of them would be a fine aquisition.
Do you know of any other UK ( I'm assuming he is ) artists making lampwork of this quality... which I tend to associate with some of the US makers.

Yes, they are one-offs.  Yes, they are for sale.  Yes, 'Rainforest' is available!   :D

I know, because I just took my 'reserve' off it, after deciding to have the 'Neptune' instead!   :lol:

Leni  :wink:

BTW, forgot to say many, many thanks for posting the pics!   :D

Hi All you nice people,
                               Thanks for all the nice comments about the weights,I am trully "CHUFFED" as they say up here(thats "pleased" to those that don't know and think I have a terrible disease,lol).I thought I would tell you that the weights are being kept on display at the gallery for the next couple of weeks.They wanted them for longer; so if those of you who are going to the Ysart convention would like to see them,I will tell them they can keep them untill after the conventions finished.Post a reply on this thread if you want me to do that.Thanks again for the positive comments.
               Allan :D
