Thank you for the link, stonemonkey :) That is interesting how they made the rods and canes.. a lot of work!! I think I will stick to digital photography lol. Beautiful stuff though. Thanks again -- Tabs

Tabs - the skill involved in making this glass is amazing. Too difficult and complex for me to explain but you can look here for a description if you are interested: http://www.museum.state.il.us/exhibits/barker/techniques/tech_millefiori.php StoneMonkey

woah that's pretty wild.. before I looked at your description I kept staring at it trying to figure out if it was material or rubber or whatnot.. very cool and 3-D look to it.
