A quick check of Blenko's catalog shows that they do not make the size
he needs. That is why I said what I did. Even if he were willing to
change his size requirements, the vases looked like they have paddled
sides anyway.

If that is so, then my bad.
I see nothing in the "header" that mentions Philadelphia. All I see is
"Crackle Glass Cylinder." Maybe my software does not display all of the
information he submitted. I am using Mozilla Thunderbird.
Non the less, I think his best bet is still to contact a small artist
glass blower. Contacting a large factory setting like Blenko is
unlikely to be productive.
