Heard of "Cotisso"?

[Lush!]

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

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.

I've seen these at Plowden and Thompson just lying around. Must be something about the Mediterranean skies that make these look more glamorous!

I must be tired this morning I read the title as "Herd of "Cotisso"?" I was expecting some sort of small furry animal

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!

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!
