Title: More Aussie brilliance - Alasdair Gordon
Post by: ahremck on October 26, 2013, 11:42:10 AM

A third piece by an old (he's now 82 and still going) favourite Alisdair Gordon.  This perfume is about 7 years old and the stopper is plain.  I will put up some more by this family when I get a chance to photograph them.  Alisdair is married to Rish (who does work nearly as good as his).  They had two glassmaking children, Kevin who is a stunning engraver as well - but in a different style - very geometric.  Eileen who blows and makes many of their glass blanks - her husband Grant Donaldson(ex farmer) who makes lovely large pieces, and finally Hamish Donaldson who is already making pwts.  I have work from all of them.
