No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

Inspired by a trip to the (Glass) Zoo, I have photographed a couple of my unknowns........

3" long, blue glass Terrier

Blue bird on branch, 3" high to wing tip - weighs just 20g and I can't believe it hasn't got broken (I thought the macro lens might take the beak out at one point!).  This is one of my favourite pieces of glass.

I have a similar blue bird on branch to yours, Cat.  Slightly different modelling but essentially the same I think.  Here is a pic of mine.
