So do I....I am warming more and more to Scandinavian glass, and these are so simple yet stylish.....gosh will I really have to start collecting glassware as well as animals.....will John still want to live here if I do.....yes,  he'll build another shelf!

Did Afors do anything in this sort of style in coloured glass as well, or was it always clear?

All their engraved stuff is on clear (or rather I've not found any exceptions) but he did a lot of coloured cased

Thank you Gareth,  they are spectacular,  and you have made my mind up for me.....eek, I've already had three Christmas presents, and they don't look as though they come cheap!
