STUNNING :) VASE :)
I had my eyes on that one! Oh, well...
Very nice vase Frank. You won't regret it. As I said, if I didn't already have the one I got 6 months ago, I would have jumped on it.

Gorgeous!...:-)

I have an aeolus; but this one has a really good size/shape! Congratulations; let me know if you get tired of it any time soon. :)
dasullywon : Thanks, I'll keep you posted.
