I'm looking for photos of the blown fish pendant lights. I made them for M. Tiki - would like shots before going there next Tuesday. Further... what's the opine on the fishies?

I was just looking at the Ironwood glass website to get more information about purchasing one. I phoned Mr. Tiki to get more info about buying one for myself. I thought those lamps were terrific. A great blend of modern technology to achieve an old school touch. I would much rather have one of the glass ones instead of a real pufferfish lamp. The only thing that set me back a little bit was seeing the price. They are quite handsome but $500? That would be out of most household budgets for a pendant lamp. If the price were hovering around $200 or less then I would seriously think about buying one for my home tiki bar. But... They were very nicely done. Excellent work

Edited to add a few more: I had it all backwards -- the best bed is the one that's stumbling distance from Tiki-Ti, or the Mai Kai, or the Lagoon Room, or the Alibi, or the Kon Tiki, or...
