I came across mention of Effetre Cotisso on LE and thought ??? so I followed a few links and enjoyed reading Pat Frantz's blog.

Now this is something for me n Kay to look out for on our little trip next week ;D ;D
Ohh that's some flipping big frit. k999999999999999999999999999?
Ok I need a torch the size of my studio, a kiln as big as the living room and a 12ft mandrel.
very cool though I like the idea of manicuring one for on the stall.
Chunkeh ;D ;D ;D
Lurvley. See if they'll let you bring a whole load back ;D ;D ;D Put me down first on the list pleeeeeeze ;D ;D ;D ;D
I've seen these at Plowden and Thompson just lying around. Must be something about the Mediterranean skies that make these look more glamorous! :D
I must be tired this morning I read the title as "Herd of "Cotisso"?" I was expecting some sort of small furry animal ;D
I saw them on Frantz a while back and I loved them! I do like a bit of pretty rock (you should see my goldstone/tigers eye stash) but these take it to the next level! :D
Are you getting any??
mmmm a big lump of coloured transparent would look lovely sat on my window ledge - make washing up less of a chore!
Also used in Venetian pavements:

Oh, I'd love a path like that!
Cor - they're pretty!
That beats tarmac pavements hands down. Want one. Julie, wanna cullet. Innit. ;D
Yes, they had some rare ones for sale earlier this year.
