      Thank you DejaVu for your wonderful compliments, it's been really great for me to find some classic Heisey pieces to show here & back up with my book info about them - you can still find the original clear Heiseys but I prefer the colored glass reissues for photographing. Have a few coming up in future

      Phil thank you for your super praise and I'm really glad that you appreciated the colors here ( lighter green & shading on the fish, deeper green on the wave), this also came in a very pale blue but looked kinda washed out to me and the green had more intensity

      Thank you Karen for your awesome compliments & enjoying the color & design, Royal Hickman as you know designed beautiful animals & in this Heisey glass series he often put them on a base of clouds (mammals) or waves (fish) to give them a deco look. I only have one of his huge animals, the flying mare, but there are many more large beauties like the clydesdale horse I only wish were in my budget (maybe a Christmas bonus honey if you're listening lol :)
