I can see clearly now …

… and other transparency-related puns ;)

This is “a laser engraved 3D image of the Works GP in a solid lead crystal glass block“, created and commissioned by TonyT3 in England - customized individually so that this block shows “GP0203″ on the roof … although it’s very hard to photograph:

In person, it’s an incredibly beautiful piece of art, and almost unique - I don’t think Tony will ever do another production run! Thanks, Tony, for the chance to own one of these blocks :D

    Wow, actual crystal and not the usual acrylic?
    Those look great when bottom-lit by a few LEDs.

    Yes, probably wont be doing another run, as the logistics were a nightmare and it was never intend to be run ‘for profit’ so there is little incentive.

    Yes, its solid lead crystal, will last forever I should think. Extremely hard to photograph, and yes, looks superb on an LED base.

    Future collectable I sincerly hope….
