I picked this up at a thrift shop today; although it's very simple, it looks nice... I don't know what to make of it, hope someone can help! The base is smoothly polished, the glass appears to be clear heavy crystal. A single small piece of silverish kind-of-rock inside. Reminds me of the old Baccharat rock-sand paperweight, but this one is definitely modern, judging by the profile. Thanks for sharing info!
