For more info, the orb is a 3/4 cut of a paper weight my father had, not sure if he still has it. And the vase is an interpretation of a vase my mother had that sat in our bathroom until I was about 15, it got broken lol, not by me ;oP honest

I was obviously restricted by the source, but it is very similar to how I remember them. I always liked the clear glass with the colour ribbed glass contained within the vase. I really wanted to find an image I could link...

interesting fact: My sister was born just before they went in '73, I was born just after they got back in '80, we were nearly both Kenyan... that would have been different lol
