Patrick McMahon, master crystal engraver who started out in Ireland and ended up in Grange-over-Sands, Cumbria,  died on 1 Jan 2010 of a brain tumour, aged just 55.

Patrick traded as Artcrystal. His (now defunct) website stated: "Come along and see our lovely new range of crystal from around the world, Waterford, Galway Irish, Dartington, Caithness, One World Collection, Atlantis, Cumbria Crystal plus Patrick's fantastic Engraving Collection."

Nope cos I didn't find out about his death for quite a few months afterwards. I have found some stuff on the Way Back Machine though.
