I'm afraid the colour on my monitor has gone weird, these were adjusted for brightness and contrast at the time, but they don't look that good to me right now.

It's an egg-shaped thing, blue lustred at the top, but with a seascape deep inside the bottom part, that was the hard bit to try to capture - I don't know if you can see it better than I can.

Sue that is gorgeous!  I like it as much as I love my Norman Stuart Clarke egg :hiclp:   there is something exquisite about the shape and size and then the decor/colours as well.

Didn't know N S-C made eggs! Can I see?
I have two rather nice bottles by him, I like his work, but as you can see, I don't "collect" him - haven't got that definitive third piece yet!

The thread is here Sue.  The photos really don't do it justice, it is absolutely gorgeous. Iridescent with purples and blues and incredible how it was made.

Lovely - I've not seen a pattern like that in iridescent finish before - almost like bits of fingerprints, or a bit tiger-y or zebra-ish, bet it's fantastic in the sunshine -
do you ever take it outside with you on a sunny day, just to admire it?
I'll get some pics of my pieces - but I'll put them in your N S-C thread.
