This was years before he became known for the Bellagio lobby - which is insane! I used to torture my wife by proclaiming every piece of glass art, no matter what the origin as being Chihuly! We'd be at TJ Maxx or something and I'd pick up some Murano glass bowl and proclaim - "Hey look Regina...this is a Chihuly!"
