<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 4560433, member: 51"]Total dead end on researching this, probably some mix-up with the name, or possible the artist wasn't in the business of making lamp work beads for very long, and/or worked pre-internet. Got these last week at a garage sale. The older woman who was selling them said she got them several decades ago at "Piccadilly Studios" and that the artist was "Gale Whit".</p><p><br /></p><p>I can find absolutely nothing on that unusual name, also zero on the studio. The seller wrote the name on the bag, so I know I have the spelling with what she thought was correct. She seemed quite specific about it, and her memory seemed clear on other matters. I figured I'd get home and find the name, but no such luck. Price was good, I could see the quality, so have zero buyer's remorse but if by some miracle anyone recognizes the artist's name, let me know! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Here is the group:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]404689[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]404690[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]404691[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]404692[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
