Chihuly for Sale


I mentioned yesterday that the Webster Auditorium at the Desert Botanical Garden had been turned into a shop for Chihuly souvenirs.  In addition to the books, videos, T-shirts, and caps, there were also some exquisite collectors pieces for sale.

I would have been tempted to purchase one of these beauties……
















…..if the prices weren't in excess of $7,000.00!

Wow. And there's me thinking photography was an art to master. These are stunning.

Those individual pieces are really stunning, and you photographed them beautifully. I'd be afraid to get too close!

Oh me too Sharon... if I had a spare 7,000 :))

There is no question as to their desirability or beauty, but I can think of a number of other things I'd rather do with 7 grand! :)

I thought you were going to say you bought a couple of them!

I think the picture is going to have to suffice and just think, the picture doesn't need dusting.

These are my favourite type of his designs!

How can you just choose one.

I went to the Naples Philharmonic tonight, and the shop at the Phil had three Chihuly glass works for sale, at about $5500 each.

Gorgeous pieces but the price is not very inviting... :-)
