Weights I bought at The National
« on: April 20, 2008, 06:04:32 PM »
Today at Gaydon I bought two wonderful weights!  They were made by Ray Annenberg at Adam Aaronson's Whitefriars day last year, using Whitefriars paperweight canes.  They have been professionally faceted, and are inscribed (by Adam) with Ray's name and the details of where and when they were produced. 

I am thrilled to have them!  Real collectors pieces, IMHO!  :D

Well done, Ray  :hiclp:  Many thanks, Adam  :-*  And Yippee for me!  :girlcheer:

I guess it's probably MY age  :-[  ::)  but I admit that I still think of a 'dress' as being ordinary, while a 'frock' is posh!  :D  So you're probably right about the £100, Sue  ;)
