That is a nice shell. My wife has a purple blown glass vase from the Isle of Wight, You get to watch them make them and they have a morgage advisor on hand for when you want to buy them, alternatively a surgeon will take one of your kidneys on site as payment. lol. More pricey than i would like lol
