Hiya Sue! :kissy: I've never seen one like this before anywhere, it has a slightly space-alien look about it to me. Have you looked in Dusan's or Jindrich's albums?
Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd

Gentle bump  :-[
I have been looking for the designer of this piece every spare moment i have, and i still think Czech, if it had been solid glass i think i could have narrowed it down a bit ie:- MAYBE ! Barolac ? but i still have no idea.
Also have noticed how Owl looking the face is ?
I have been so out of touch with my glass because of babies and other nightmares, i am loosing my little grey cell's

any help whatsoever would be gratefully accepted x
