Really not sure what to make of this - if anything at all. What do you think?

Another go with this one. The back has a strange off-centre indented mark making me unsure if this is whole or a part of something else - it's a really stupid looking kangaroo whatever!

I think it's just a fused glass souvenir item and the indent is from whatever it was fused in

LOL jp...into the scotch I go and no night time driving! Those big greys, not greens, definitely do some major damage to a car!

Could be anyone. Slumping and fusing is a really simple technique. I went to an exhibition not long ago of slumped glass made by a local group in Canberra, showing pieces of varying quality.
