I've just been reading through an earlier Adrian Sassoon Gallery catalogue with a bio of Rachael, and it says the partnership with Neil Wilkin began in 1985. "In 1985, a year after she graduated from the RCA, Woodman set up Wilkin & Woodman Glass with Neil Wilkin. The two worked symbiotically. Neil Wilkin was the specialist glassblower in the partnership while she concentrated on the cutting, grinding and polishing skills that she had worked so hard to perfect." So it seems that Roy's bowl pre-dates this partnership, but again the list of dates in this catalogue has that two year gap between 1984-1986!
