Topic: Happy 50th "Birthday" to the Studio Glass Movement - Studio Glass 1962-1979

Mine have uneven rims, stems that differ in size and the foot differs quite considerably in size across the six. All part of their charm!

Absolutely. They would not be right if they were anything else.

I should add that I have had conversations with Mark Hill about this very wonky goblet I have been attributing to Annette Meech. He thinks it is Jiri Suhajek's work.
Which is an absolutely thrilling idea. I did write to Mr. Suhajek, but got no reply.

similarity in stem and foot with this to my eye:

It's gorgeous - love the colour combination

I was led astray by the shape of the bowl and did not see the other similarities before, I was so convinced it was Meech. 
I've always loved it though.

Posting this for Sue.

ooh lala!

(  My yellow paperweight positioned under lighting is one of my all time fave pieces.  It comes to life under light doesn't it).

  Thanks, John. I was a bit overcome when I first placed all 5 small, early Mdina cylinders together, they suddenly became a kind of "Michael Harris quintuplich" rather than just being slightly unusual and interesting individual items.
All have neat, round, polished pontil marks. So they were made after the Boffos arrived, I think. But before Michael Harris left, obviously.   

Glad you appreciate them, m.

I have all my Carlo Moretti pencil vases together each one a different colour.  They look like a sculpture.

That's how I view your vases.  Rather than being a set they are, as one piece, a sculpture.

[chopin-liszt]

Exactly. As if each vase is a letter, the 5 together make a word which has meaning.
It's a wall of Michael Harris.
I'm in a total tizz.
