Topic: Studio glass ?

[bat20]

Hi , just got back from our neighbourly Friday evening beer o’clock so I’ll post some clearer images tomorrow.My uneducated glass making thoughts on the rim are that a cane rod could have been melted onto the rim , there is a slight lip between the body and the rim on a small section .

Hope this comes up ?

I'm interested in you saying there is a slight "lip" between the rim and the body.
Does the indent go all the way around? Could it have been applied using the incalmo technique?
 
I would suggest writing to Twists with images and ask them.

I don't know anything about glassmaking but the new photos now show an area that isn't such a neat finish on the cane application? or at least that's how it looks to my very untrained eye.
  I don't have any Mike Hunter work rather unfortunately but online photographs of the work seems to show it all looks very neat and impeccably finished:

Thanks for your thoughts all ,..Sue you can feel the groove for about 1”,close to the cane join ,if that is how it was made ??…in the meantime it’s doing it’s job on the bathroom window sill,it really works well there !

That is my concern too, flying-free.
Mike is incredibly neat with his latticino work. He's a true master, with innate talent.
