Nicely made pieces - how much do they weigh please?

chopin-liszt:
My Hortensja is not the same thing as the pieces in question, but it weighs 9 oz. It's 7" tall.

flying free:
thanks Sue.  So not overly light weight.  I find I have a better concept of glass if I know how much it weighs iykwim?

chopin-liszt:
The glass is thin, but the stem is solid. I'm fairly sure the beaker-shaped vase in browns and yellows I gave Pete was about 3-4mm in thickness. Not lightweight, but not overly substantial.

rocco:
Mine weighs about 250g; the rim and walls are really thin (less than 1 mm glass thickness), but the base section is rather heavy.
So mine could be Hortensia as well, I guess -- if several Polish companies used this technique.

I think there has gone some effort in this piece, bevelling such a delicate rim...
