another stunner:)
Now this is something I have always wanted and never found in 'my' price range beautiful, well done!..glowy?...:-)
Thank you BELLIN68! She is quite something, I could not believe the detail in her!
Thank you inky! Actually she was not that expensive I am sure that you can compare your currency with mine and I paid £18.00. Nobody at this little local rural auction seems to take much notice of the glass - so I love going to see what is on offer. Bought some of the posted Hospodka there last week too for very little really! (And No I am not telling where as you will be on the next flight over)LOL!!
That's a really good price our currency at the moment is double yours and your vase here would go at auction for $150 up!...We could do a swap you come here and then I go there, that would be fair wouldn't it..:-/
Could do with a holiday, and that Mountain looks wonderful!
You would be most welcome!..:-)
Thank you inky!!
