Alan Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I take it that it lacks a signature of any kind? Look like a generic piece - the kind they sell in gift shops etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR BALES Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 I believe it says Fellas 85, as in Lorna Fellas, an English Glassmaker. http://www.great-glass.co.uk/glass%20notes/britsc-f.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delbert Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 That one is kind of like a mib, ain't it? My paperweight collecting taste has usually run more to encased core works and millefiori. I have a favorite or two, but my collection never really spread out from that narrow focus. I'll post a pic of one encased core example I recently bought as soon as I figure out the image attachment process here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delbert Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Here are a few blacklight shots. They're not great, but the best I can do with my camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
