      Funnily enough you see pretty much the same thing here with Hokitika Glass stickers on them :)

      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 :)
