Bill G:
Today, Sunday 10-8-06, the Swedish press reported that Timo Sarpaneva is dead.

He will be remembered as one of the great Finnish artist/designers of the 20th Century and many of his designs in glass are considered to be classics in the international market place.

Della:
Oh dear, how very, very sad.  :cry:  :cry:

Pip:
I'm sure the Swedish press are correct, but Millers 20th Century Glass book states that he passed away last year.

Regardless of that, RIP Timo Sarpaneva  :(

David E:
