Large Green & Gold Paperweight Embossed Mark ID = Brian Hirst (Australia)

(1/1)

chrisade:
Large dome shaped PW with a green cloudlike form sprinkled with gold on top and with a controlled bubble feature encased in clear glass. The base has an indented embossed mark that looks like X. Once again hoping someone can enlighten me. Thanks Chris

stew2u2:
might it be liskeard glass with the makers mark gone a bit wrong

chrisade:
Hi, thanks for the thought about Liskeard but I don't think it is. The mark is more of an X Regards Chris

ahremck:
You must also be an Aussie - or you are just fluking buying Australian Pwts.  That mark is Brian Hirst - another excellent longer-term glass artist.

Hi again Ross, thanks for this ID and definetly Aussie. I have another which is frosted with a clear flat angled top and a clear flat base (apart from the maker's mark). This one you can see into the inside of the PW. Thanks for the help again. Chris
