The glass and the wooden stoppers are beautiful. Smile
Is there a proper name for the stoppers? Finials?

You got it, finials  Smile 

I’ve just been for a proper look round. Wow expensive!! Thing I find most annoying about artists is the complete BS they talk/write about the stuff they make. It’s a glass jar for crying out loud you can not see a bl@@dy Scottish (or any other sort ) forest.

The wood lids on some of the work. There’s 2 sat next to the wood burner when the page first opens.

Ok gotcha, very impressive, the 2nd piece looks almost like it’s some sort of metal, or is it my eyesSmile
 
How long would it take Bob to make one of those lids SC?

Does he have anymore pieces in the catalogue?

It’s definitely your eyes   Wink , it’s wood. No other stuff is his , just a few lids. He’s got his own website. You’ll have to find it yourself  Smile . I’m not giving him anymore plugs  Big Grin . I’ll give you a hint,  I put a link to it in one of the harvest festival threads. 
Doesn’t take him long to make them. He knocked up a demo one yesterday in about half an hour. He had to make it because they wanted photos of the process for the exhibition.

They are stunning and the wood is beautiful. I love watching glass being blown. My son used to love it and a glass blowing kit was on his Christmas list for years. sadly I was a bit too nervous to buy as its so hot even for a teen, and he was only about 8 when he first asked..
