Alex would offers these pieces at his annual Open house event on "Columbus Day" weekend. It's a great opportunity for visitors to watch Alex working with hot glass and to purchase glass, often 50-60% off the normal retail price...
These are the same as the Alex's other glass but with very minor irregularities. A piece may be considered an irregular if it has a ripple in the glass, or an uneven lip, or an unintended air bubble, or it may have a speck of foreign material so small you might not even notice. These irregularities are tiny and purely cosmetic and not structural. Collectors have confided that these "little irregularities" add to the character of the piece and give it "personality". Collectors also appreciate that these irregulars are 1/2 of the regular price of the ones that sell in galleries. Supplies are limited.
