Ysart Glass in Perth Museum all locked up in the basement again.

<< < (4/4)

chopin-liszt:
It has a fair few manufacturing flaws. I was actually surprised that it wasn't somehow marked as a second, but it came with the original box.
Even the base is not completely flat, but has an angle on it on one side.
I did wonder if it was a difficult colour to get to work properly, which might be the reason for the paucity of pieces?

I do sometimes get into trouble with paintings close up, if I try to point something out to M.
The guards are always worried I might accidentally touch it and descend upon me.
But if it's a tiny painting, and there are electrified ropes around it to keep you 6 feet away, it is very frustrating.

Scotland's glass website seems to be down at the moment, for checking the dates. :'(

Hi Sue & all,
Long time away..... but I also noticed a few days ago that Scotlands glass is down, now Ysart glass is too  :'( (argghh.... much info on there not in the book) and so seem to be the rest of Frank's associated sites. Does anyone know why /  if it's temporary ?
