I've got that bowl and a tall vase in blue and amber, I got them from Allister himself.
In my not very humble opinion, he is the best, most innovative and most interesting glassmaker we have currently working on these islands.
My admiration knows no bounds. ;D

I have tried and tried but I cannot photograph his Platinum pieces. They're three dimensional and just don't work in 2D.
The vase I have in the same design as your bowl is one I do actually use for flowers if I'm ever stuck with them.  :)

That's lovely, Keith! I love Allister's work! I have a similar shaped bowl with a different design/finish, that we bought from him at Harrogate (along with three glass icicles)
