Greg: Thanks for the reference to the slideshow. I don't much about British Studio Glass, and this helped. Some lovely pieces, useful information, and some interesting sounding links. Just the thing for Saturday morning!

Okay, here's my stupid question for the day (hopefully, just the one Mrs. Wembley   :angel: ). So you have these gorgeous perfume bottles, and you have your large economy size Jean Nate or the like. How do you get the perfume from your bottle to the pretty one!  :chky:
