Ivo:
As for swan, we had a lampworker visit our primary school back in 1963 or so and he made a few of these swans to demonstrate lampwork. It is something quick and easy, does not take 3 minutes - so it is more like a dachshund knotted from balloons than serious glass made in a glassworks.

keith:
Ta,it will always from now on be known as the 'sausage-dog' swan,never really rated it as a glass masterpiece,Keith,
