A couple of stabs in the Dark
« on: March 14, 2020, 09:29:55 PM »
Hi All bought a couple of pieces off ebay that I liked. Stepped outside Archimede S. Still I like the look of them.
Any ideas would be gratefully accepted.
The latticino piece has minor A.S. traits but I don't expect it is made by him. The Sommerso piece looks familiar to me but the name escapes me ATM (like most things)

Clean and Crisp a Murano twist.

Your latticino bowl looks well made, much more precise than most.

Thanks John, the more I look at the other one the less I am impressed. The cords either end do not end exactly at the same place. Seems well made but not the kind of detail a master blower would let through.
