Title: Studio Art Glass Very Heavy & Very Nice
Post by: Dave the Glass on June 03, 2008, 06:18:52 PM: Got this the other day could not resist. It is very well made about 7 inches high cased & has a sort of pink splodge spiders Web inside the glass. I have seen something like it before but cant remember where. I am sure one of you guys or girls can help me.

I'll have a look through my archives and try and find the designer as they dozens of them working out of their place.
The design also comes in different colourways and shapes. I have two different vases, if I get time in the next couple of days I will take a pic for you.

Post by: dirk. on April 21, 2010, 08:39:42 PM: I´ve recently found a signed example of these. This leads to some questions.
Is this signature a forgery or genuine?
Does it point towards a certain period of manufacturing?
