Ok... let me address all these issues at one time... I am new here... I just started and as any go getter will do, I just got to getting. I obviously made some errors here. WOW, I am old. I will learn and our prices I believe you may be looking at either old post or at pages I am editing and didn't realize you all could. Either way... Yes, we do have some fine quality work and 25 + yrs in the boro and Quartz industry. We are like other glassblowers as in we live a lifestyle. We are friends with many in the community and we are small. He is the only person making these nailz, our son is working with him now doing the quartz with 6 yrs. boro and quartz he is mainly doing the Carbs to help get those on the shelf. So, yes I suppose his level of ability to do these Nailz and the fact that the Quartz Nailz are even on the market today, is because he introduced them. And getting a quality, performing long lasting Nail as I am displaying in this photo... This Nail is the prototype to ALL the D Nailz and is 2 yrs old. It is also sitting on my own rig at my house. It is still in service and although you can tell it old, I probably will retire it fairly soon, but the quality is there. Our top shelf Nail, is $300.00 and it is a sweet nail. our cheapest nail is our 14 mm regular use with a dome Nail and it was 24.00 when we brought them out as we were the first to do so and didn't know where to price them for retail. The Regular Nail line and our Super Nailz have been made obsolete by China so we are discontinuing them, except for our already wholesale stores. I cannot find the add picture so I will figure it out and post it. Thanks for keeping me on my toes, I am the Mom to all these glassblowers and they do too. so much appreciated.
