Nice colors..his belly looks like snow.
Beautiful icy penguin!
Spectacular penguin Jenni!! I echo exactly what Dave said.
Funnily enough you see pretty much the same thing here with Hokitika Glass stickers on them :)
HIs position is so final, like the last days of Chilly Willy. Gorgeoous piece !~
Many thanks everyone for the love

Special thanks to you all for your wonderful comments
Dave it absolutely does look like snow, what a terrific feature to have on a glass penguin! Pilgrim Glass also made a snowy tummy set on transparent black, I posted it here, the difference was it was applied to the figure, this one is smooth
DejaVu he is an icy fellow, ready to step onto a floe or dive into the frigid waters!
Right Scott, doesn't the snowy tummy look real, and the cobalt blue back is so cool & a little different for a penguin (most are B&W)
Bernard you are totally right I have seen them too, and often the seller description says 'by Nigel Schroder for Hokitika' so I'm thinking, perhaps his art glass studio is part of Hokitika, as I've also seen similar glass fish with either label. All I know is, it's great to find some of your beautiful NZ glass animals to share here
Lol Phil I love the Chilly Willy cartoon penguin and that's a great comparison! Just give him a scarf and there you go :)
Thank you Vynil & Sean for the love for this penguin, very pleased that you both liked it and appreciate your kindness
Thank you Patricia for the love for this glass penguin, it's so nice of you and I appreciate your thoughtfulness
~ Wowser ~
Many thanks Ivonne & Rose for the love, and Rose for your fab comment, I'm really happy that this penguin wowed you!!
Many thanks Karen for loving my icy NZ penguin, he's flapping his arms in gratitude!
