First, I agree with Anne, this is not a Sommerso piece of glass, so it is SNAD, or significantly not as described.

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

SNAD is the abbreviation for significantly not as described.

Oh dear, that's the second repeat. :pb:

Hi guys

I'd like to say that you guys have been amazing, I will run any future purchases by you!!

I had been working with the seller with emails back and forth for about 10 days, the seller told me to esculate the case to ebay which i did and they found in my favour and I am also being given an extra £5 towards return postage so thankfully I can put this down to experience.

I just cited what you said about colours in photo being misleading and the fact it is not Sommerso.

Thanks
Cherylle (Sweetglass)
