These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection.

Heart Foundation Shop; New Goods; £4.99, circa early 2000s. Made in China.
Decorative and a vast improvement on their later things with fish in. :)

The same design weight has, in at least one place, been offered as "Pantin". ::)

I told them it was a £5 Heart foundation Chinese weight, they have just replied to say they will change it!

 It really does make my blood boil, if I went in with a painting they had never seen before with no signature and said it was by Picasso I somehow don't think they would catalogue it as such.

I've just told them it's a £4.99 Chinese pwt from HFS new goods.

I do hope the difference in price we quoted at them won't cause too many problems.
