No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection.

If the signature is good, probably a good buy. Sold as a nautical collectable it would skyrocket they are one of the big paying sectors - I can't even beat them for transfer-printed glasses with stupid bids.

It is totally right. These were made for a regatta at one of the prestigious Italian yacht clubs and were done as a special commission by Archimede Seguso. Price is a bit strong, I bought my one for £76 but that was a couple of years ago.
