Although the seller says Old English, this paperweight looks more like a Salvador Ysart / Vasart to me. What does anyone else think?

I am surprised that you did not recognise this weight as a Vasart item (probably the early period - Ysart Brothers, 1946 to 1956) as I believe you have sold several similar before.
