    A personal first was this Life Light found on a shelf at Vinnie’s yesterday in Sydney. My second piece of glass for 2020. For some reason I never see Life Lights here in Oz. Welzebub explained their significance on another post here on CW as a gift for a new born child. Lit each year on their birthday. I can see the symbolism of the clam shell and relate it to the journey of life.
    The amount of work in each of these lights is amazing. I just enjoyed cleaning it of the muck in its base yesterday afternoon and began to see and understand the complexity of the moulds they used on these pieces.

      What a fabulous find! And how funny, I was only thinking about how I never see these life lights here, just like you said...Can't beat those op shops, can you! :-)
      (I found a big Clarice Cliff wall plate today at my local op shop in Katoomba - will post in the next few days as I'm a tad busy...)
