  1. Gee that was a good find! Yep got to keep the nose to the ground in this game :)
  2. interesting piece about the origami gifts :)
  3. By the way, all 3 items I loaded this afternoon did the usual "We are processing your images. Please hang in there" but ultimately brought up in red "Upload error! Server error" Don't panic if you see...
  4. both Peters used to share a workshop in the early days and no doubt still see each other so not surprising they each have put out similar pieces.
  5. Just when you think Scott has just about every door stop in the world it now looks like I may have found where the toy six gun I had as a kid has gone too! :)
  6. Hi Marin, no uranium but heaps of cadmium
  7. Thanks Jenny and Marin for the ID on the flowers. Thanks for looking Phil, the first name looks like it ends in i I found a list here with several Millers but the first name doesn't seem to fit an...
  8. Sorry Dave it was the last of the 5
  9. Probably waiting for something yummy to drop off the table :)
  10. when CW tells you it failed to finish uploading your post open another screen and check your profile page and you'll see it probably has. Another glitch since the change in who runs it.
  11. No and Yes :)
  12. Your'e right to post and preserve it Rob as it is a part of history just not something to be celebrated.
  13. filled with raspberry jam and hokey pokey crunch......mmmm :)
  14. with luggage checks on departure......... :)
  15. Beautiful vases, great to get the provenance confirmed by the artist himself :)
  16. Thanks!
  17. I have a group of these, one the same as yours, another playing a sax, another with a drum and the last with a violin. Must post them one day :)
  18. Interesting padlock! What does it say as it's hard to read even when I use the CW zoom.
  19. Beautiful, glad it arrived in one piece but it must have been a nervous wait :)
  20. Try google image on photo 2, lots of them come up :)
  21. L A woman just came on the radio as I opened this :)
  22. nice website, esp liked the tidal waters.
  23. And the green becomes yellow, first glance I thought it was 2 different shades but the same shape. It's quite neat how they change :)
  24. Beatiful colour, looks great in amongst the leaves.
  25. Love the collar, as we have discussed they are so often missing it really makes the piece!! :)
  26. wow you wouldn't many of these with all the original packaging!
  27. the orange quench bottle's shape is really neat!.
  28. "Never Again" something to do with the world wars? I see there are some newer war memorials in Canada that use those words in their title.
  29. perhaps Puss is sucking up the healing energies for himself :)
  30. watch out that Scott doesn't spot it.....too late :)
  31. The rim makes it look like one of those plants that close on insects, beautiful colours and of course I like the spiky handle :)
  32. Is it cut or do they wet the wood and mould it?
  33. Beautiful vase and I wouldn't have thought to check this colour of glass for uranium, another piece of information to stick in the memory box, thanks Marin.
  34. Seem to remember seeing they had to close last year partially due to the hexamine blocks used to power the cars came up on a list of restricted chemicals in the UK that could be used to make bombs and...
  35. Beswick is nice stuff, I can understand the disappointment of having a piece arrive broken, I usually put them in a corner for a while and contemplate later on what to do next after my grumpy button r...
  36. I have since found them to be Huart!
  37. All are very nice but really love the etagere (had to look that word up). A great way to start the new year off!
  38. It isn't Tony's work, see his comment below. "I don’t think that piece is one of mine. Has a few hallmarks of me, like colour and iridescence but not a style I recall making."
  39. OK probably not Tony's work but I have emailed him for comment he might recognise whose it is.
  40. Your home page seems devoid of any detail as to where you are based, are you in New Zealand or elsewhere?
  41. Certainly unusual but I like it too!
  42. ah the maltese cross pontil, a favourite maker of glass in NZ of mine Tony Kuepfer uses this pontil break. Tony was originally from Oregen USA and was shown the method by Fred Daden who was a top gaff...
  43. Beautiful pieces, I also enjoyed reading about the silver overlay process.
  44. Great job on the repairs! Seeing this reminds me of a lady at our work that used to give me grief during duck shooting season calling me a duck murderer!! This carried on for years until I found out...
  45. He is very regal!
  46. If old and valuable cleaning may not be a great idea as the pattina of old items is usually more valued than polished up looking like new.
  47. I'm envying this one :)
  48. Lovely piece and it's big, shame about the petal & leaf but do you grow old waiting for another....nah... I would have grabbed it too!! :)
  49. Put on in Japan I think, you see a few pieces here in NZ with this label and of course Karen has seen them in Aussie.
  50. afternoon tea looks good :)
