      Fantastic Alan, I bet you got this for a steal!!! Just yesterday I watched Murano glass blowers on you tube and how they create this design. Right out of the fire, they gently dip it into a star like mold just enough that it creates the lines on the side then take it out while still on the blow stick. Love those glass blowers! And yet another great find for you! Good to see you!

      shareurpassion, long time no see, where you being, nice to hear from you.
      I afraid this one will be little more complex to do and long labor for sure, due to several technique involve.
      I will love to see this particular one on the making process.
      Many thanks for the visit, comment and appreciation of this post.
