Mushroom shaped glass slide?

Does anyone know of any online sites that carry glass slides in the shape of a mushroom? Looking to get one for my bong. If anyone has one that they want to sell, let me know as well.

Thanks.

Its probably going to be a custom job, hard to find in a store. It isnt terribly complex, but uses a lot of color and needs some unique shaping to it. I'd be happy to make it for you with a one week turnaround time from payment to ship date for $45. There are many other lampworkers on the forums, so be sure to check around to see if others can do the job for you better/worse/same whatever. :-)

I'm thinking construction-wise a coil potted white and then addon a coil potted red end, puff out white dots bring back to shape then pull and snake the stem in there and add some lines with a carving knife to texturize the veil and stem areas. Should take about an hour to hour and a half, white and red are pretty sensitive to heat colors so it goes a little slow.
 
hey researchkitty, thanks for the reply! I just checked out your glass thread and I'm quite impressed by your work :) I have no problems paying $45 if you can reproduce this. Is there any particular part of the piece that might be difficult to reproduce? Also, if you have any personal suggestions on improving the design, I'm open to ideas and would be somewhat flexible on the price :)

It would need to have a 14mm connection. I assume paypal is the preferred payment method?

Hi KP. Thanks :) The entire part is difficult until you've done the first. :) But that's OK, I'd like to make more of these for my shops to sell as they've asked for fungi related merchandise from me.

We could do a few trippy things, have some mini mushroom marbles on the top of it or attached to the stem. Those would add $5 each mini marble, they are basically a mushroom inside of clear glass then attached to the piece. I cant think of too many other things to do to it, any suggestions? :-) I'd planned to match the colors you showed me in the picture unless you'd prefer something else.

When your ready to get started, shoot me a PM with your PayPal address, and I'll send the invoice.
