Hi,

So nice to see the different styles.......... 

Are any or all 'Ice cut'...... ?

Thanks for showing us these.

Ah-ha! I've only seen one this shape before and it's mine. It's one I've always strongly suspected was Michael Harris' hand, and I think yours is too, John.
The way the core colours are worked is most like my MH signed one.

Thanks for enlightening me.

This one I sold some time ago, regretting it now! I can't remember if it was facet cut or not but I expect it was.

Very observant, Lustrousstone!
yes, looking for the "seaweed" effect helps.
John's last pic looks awfully like my tall one, internally.

This is my signed one.

some proper cobalt blue in the blue on that left hand one John?
Looks very similar to the blue swirls in my button rim fish vase.
