Topic: Allister Malcolm bowl for show.

Todays only find, worth it though I think

I've got that bowl and a tall vase in blue and amber, I got them from Allister himself.
In my not very humble opinion, he is the best, most innovative and most interesting glassmaker we have currently working on these islands.
My admiration knows no bounds.

He is rather good eh ? I'm hoping he'll be working at the glass festival next weekend, must remember to take the camera

I have tried and tried but I cannot photograph his Platinum pieces. They're three dimensional and just don't work in 2D.
The vase I have in the same design as your bowl is one I do actually use for flowers if I'm ever stuck with them.

That's lovely, Keith! I love Allister's work! I have a similar shaped bowl with a different design/finish, that we bought from him at Harrogate (along with three glass icicles)

He seems a popular chap !  nice bowl !

Looks better with light passing through and it matches the orchid

Thought that both of you would like to see this, one of his spectacular pieces from the museum exhibition
