My most recent creation is "Stemware Marker Lips". As the name
suggests, it's used for telling apart one glass from the rest. Here's
a picture:

I actually had the audacity of thinking that I had created the first
origami glass marker. But by chance I found today a copy of "Origami
Around the World" by Vicente Palacios. There I found diagrams for
"Heart for drinking
glass" by Sandra Afonkina. Here's a picture of a fold by François
Ziegler:

My first question is, do you think it's supposed to be a glass marker?
I have my doubts: according to the web, there are diagrams of the
model that date back to 1996, the model might be even older, and I
don't think glass markers are that old. Although, I might be wrong.
Besides that, the image of the finished model, in the diagrams,
includes a stemware glass and the heart is just as big as the one I
showed you. So drinking with the heart becomes almost impossible.
Might it not supposed to be a glass marker?

After I learned about that model, I looked for some other origami
glass markers in Gilad's Origami Page and Origami Database. I only
found another one: "Glass Marker" by Sato Naomiki. It's in Le Pli 110
- 111, pg. 22. I didn't find any pictures. So my second question is:
can any of you show me a picture of the finished model?

And here's my last question: do any of you know about any other glass
marker models? I'd love to see them if they exist!


That's it... thank you in advance.
