    I have other glass by Marti Glass (Fukuoka) with some similarities to this giant but this works the best I think.

    It has this beautiful bubbled blue changing to green as it mixes with yellow and then the mix with orange.

    For me it is a perfect example of mid century hand made Japanese glass.
    This was made as part of a series, incorporates colour combinations rarely seen elsewhere, and is wonderfully hot worked.

    It's also very big at 42cm (16.5in).

      Lol... No Karen, I just am not on the computer so much nowadays. And, every time I looked, I had almost two weeks worth of new CW posts I needed to go through....
