Steph, visit Sweden on your next holiday. Spend a weekend at the Kosta Boda Art Hotel which is an experience. So many wonderful pieces of art displayed in the hotel and much is for sale (if you have a very thick wallet)

It has to be a lot of antique dealers down there too I guess with all the tourists passing through our swedish glass makers.

You were lucky to get that duck Ross!  I had my eye on it and only decided not to bid at the last minute!! So, Lucky you!! 
I did have quite a lot of Glory Art Glass, including a lovely pink duck,  but I sold them all to buy Leerdam pieces.
The 'pigeons' are Selkirk Ducks, all signed and labelled....I have so many I can only display a few at a time, and some of them have come 'home' from Oz!! They are the Chris Dodds design, and I love his work. 
Was it you Ross that said you had one of his cats on their desk?  I wish I could remember who it was....I have more of his cats and loads of his squirrels and so many pieces of Selkirk I need a cupboard for them alone.....lots of them are packed up....so sad!  :cry:
Here are the Chris Dodds squirrels with an eagle and a leopard, a beautiful Chris Dodds Golden owl, and th pink Glory Art Glass IOW duck I sold. Buyers remorse springs to mind!!  :cry:

Is Mikael the only one who has shown some Marcolin items? In his picture GM13 there are lots of Marcolin, and one Gränna. Very nice!


Here are some favourites from my Marcolin collection.

I can answer this one. Yes he does. I know because I sadly lost a Mueller float bowl on the way to him in Australia.

rosecottagesales is Brenton on Ebay.
