Glass Paperweights / Re: Idenitification for Marbled Paper-look Pastel Teal and Pink Glass Paperweight

I'm not so sure about the clever bit. A friend here is interested in some Uredale weights and she's been trying to educate me. This is the first time I've got an id in first and I wasn't terribly sure until I checked the site and I did think I saw a Y shape.
I think Christine's lessons and patience are finally paying off.  ;D
So, not clever, but I am chuffed with myself. ;D

Yes, thank you so much for taking the time to tell me this. Very much appreciated. There is a wonky Y - I have been wondering what it was! Aren't you clever. Thanks again, Sally

Hi Christine,
Thanks for your reply - I take your point re surface decoration and lead crystal.
Considering its condition I’d say it’s modern.
Do you know if coloured art glass is still being sold under the RD brand name, or is it just tableware,
crystal etc now ?
Not saying this is RD, just being curious  :)

Royal Doulton is just a brand as far as glass is concerned, so actual origin could be anywhere. I doubt that surface finished glass is crystal, as there is no need for the sparkle that lead crystal or even lead-free crystal imparts. Victorian glass is often lead crystal whatever it is because that is just what they used, but this looks fairly modern

Hi,
Do you think it might be Royal Doulton - just a wild guess, but it does have the colour indigo,
which RD appear to have sometimes used.
I’m also pretty sure the glass is crystal.
Don’t know whether RD pieces have polished pontil marks though- I’ve been unable to find much
info on their ‘ Art Glass ‘ range - a few examples on ‘images ‘ online, but that’s about it.
