| Lovely Russian aquas. I acquired one of these in Tucson this year, but these are great. Do you know how large in general the find was? Or are these from several different finds?

The aqua cluster is pretty neat - very sculptural and not something you see every day (I don't, at least). Does it look the same from the other side?
Thanks for sharing!
