Rather!
Have you any idea of the dates of these?
I suspect some are a few decades, and some more recent?
Is the orangey yellow one, right at the bottom left, a really heavy and solid thing?
(I have a sneaking suspicion I may have had my mitts on it at one time, but bought a different bit.)

If you ever manage to fit the card in a photo, you lose focus on the glass.
It's best we see the glass properly. ;D

We can guess dates.  8)
I bet there was plenty of other stuff turning your head too. It's difficult to fit as much in as you want to, when you finally do get to a glass event.
I think my favourite Sam-bit there is the blue bottomed and cerise topped vase to the left in the middle pic.
Which I suspect is reasonably recent.

Edited to add,  :-[ Thanks for taking these to show us!
i got a bit excited myself and missed my manners.
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)
