I am surprised the foot is unglazed, this presents a sanitary issue since the insert sits in a bowl of drink. Realistically the alcohol probably kills the bacteria, but the bacteria is the issue. This is all by the book in means of safety, glazed surfaces (devoid of crazing) should not hold bacteria, but unglazed bisque can. Gives me stuff to go by, thanks again. TT P.s. If I make these, or when for that matter, the design will be different. J$, you will be able to use the one I make without worrying about the possibility of breaking an antique.

Thanks J$,
