'Sunset glow' probably to generic to nail to one place but thought I'd try,Keith.

Your swans complement the glass beautifully. You have some gorgeous vases.

The swans remind me of brass knuckles. So if anyone insults them...

They are really not that bad. I have seen some really ugly animals. Your swans are the mid-point on the ugly scale. But they look good accenting the vases.

Beauty is relative, you know! People who collect 60s Scandi glass think my Victorian glass is hideous. Just because I don't like them doesn't mean other people won't. Anyway, I do apologise for giving one of the two least useful sorts of replies, namely "I don't know what that is, but I like it", and "I don't know what it is, and I don't like it!"  :)

You might try Frank Andrew's zoo.

Well Keith, I am in America, and from this distance they look good.  :thup:

I may not want to get any closer though........
