- I love cobalt glass! It looks especially nice displayed where the sun shines on it. Sunflower yellow is a great color to compliment cobalt. Great lens!

- Blue is my favorite color, Tammy. My mom loved blue cobalt and I now have a lot of her little blue bottles, which I use for wildflowers. Thanks for reminding me of why I love this glass.
I'm going to be publishing my "Crazy About Blue" lens soon, and am linking to this lens. It's a perfect complement to my theme. Thank you.

- I did not know it was a special mineral. How extra special is that. I have one blue glass like the one in your intro. I call it a goblet. DH made fun of me when I bought it because I only bought one. I feel the urge to take it out now...

- I can only say, "WOW!" This is a great lens! It covers all of the different types of cobalt glass, and its uses; and it has more resources than I knew existed. I can only hope to do as well with my Blue Cobalt Glass blog. Great work!
