 Hi Ivo  ,So there is never two the same. Well thank you for the pic`s but  i think this one will be going back to the charity shop . Sill learning :or:

I am wondering if it was perhaps a scientific glassblower who made these, they certainly show the some of the skills needed for scientific instruments, although they are far more simple.
(I know Fritz Akerboom was a scientific glassblower professionally, but he is also a glass artist of considerable skill.)

Ivo:
This is an industry which does lampwork, ranging from labware to frivolities. I think all lampworkers do. You don't want to do stills and autoclaves and syphons all day... And once you have the gas flame on and the pyrex tubes handy, anything might happen.

Trebor:
 I know what your saying but don't think these lads see a lot of caterpillars :t:
