So If anyone can clue me in to the age of these it would be great, the glass appears old, Im not a millifiori person, there is debris in the glass, one has a cobalt base, they are both 1 3/8th to colorful to pass up, Ive had them for a few years, the holes have a black residue in them,since I am unaware of how to do multipul downloads, I guess I'll have to do a few posts with different angles, DB.

I would agree with your second thought Ric, in them being St Mary,-ish and the orange/grays are tough indeed,something about the green and whites and yellow and whites seem to point in that dirrection, DB (RARS)

Thank You I really enjoy making them, DB

I believe Vitro Agate made the mesh bag you are speaking of, I dont have a photo though,DB.

Thanks Lou, and Steph, it's great to be here, perhaps I can add a little color, Dave B.
