Just bought this lovely "Diamond Isle Sculptured Glass" vase - the fifth IOW studio represented in my small collection.  Thought members might enjoy it.

Mmmm very nice!  :mrgreen: It's worth adding a link to Paul's own website here too for future reference: http://www.sculptured-glass.co.uk/ - I rather like his fossils and the ocean wave, and I'm sure Rosie will love the animals!

And Michelle has got some lovely examples in her collection as well...  I'm especially fond of the polar bear.

ohhhhh, yes very nice. We have been collecting his work for quite a few years now. A really lovely chap too.
Anik its the big bottom on that polar bear we love so much. If i remember correctly i think Rosie rather liked it too.
Kitty Linnington who works there is one to watch in my opinion, we met her back when she first started with Paul and if i remember correctly she was working there in a gap year type of thing. she has been there about 5 years now, and her designs are beautiful.

Ah yes, you've just gotta love its big bottom.  I still think the polar bear and cub are gorgeous. :mrgreen:

Wow fantastic vase. I  actually have one of his fossils it turns out. Nice to put a name to the maker.

Now only another 378 items to identify.
