Post by: alexander on August 29, 2017, 08:30:22 AM

I am considering selling my collection of paperweights.
I have around 200-250 pieces.

Highlights;
4 big antique Clichy, all with roses (one scramble), one of which is a superb closepack with 'basket' base
Big St Louis Alhambra (1976) in great condition, signature cane & date
Big St Louis modern in great condition, signature cane & date
Pinchbeck in good condition
William Gillender millefiori in ok condition
Very old Venetian ball, a crack but still a great piece
Antique Murano scramble
Egyptian figurine with face canes for eyes, ca. BC 100.
2x Caithness Moon Landing
1 large Paul Ysart in very good condition

Several modern & antique French/Belgian paperweights from various makers (SL/Clichy/Baccarat/VSL etc.), several mini antique paperweights

Various Strathearn/Vasart/Caithness/Perthshire and other Scottish makers. 
Large selection of 'Old English' paperweights, Whitefriars, Richardsons, Arculus, Walsh Walsh etc.
Lots of antique & modern American paperweights, Gillinder (Plymouth Rock, moving turtle), NEGC, Sandwich, Hamon, Hart, O&F, Lundberg, Ayotte, Satava, Richardson, Josh Simpson etc.
Swedish modern (mostly Warff)
Several antique Bohemian
Vintage/modern Murano
Vintage/modern Chinese
Chinese Whites
Various paperweight books
Some simple & complex Baccarat cane pieces.

I also have some very nice pieces of Norwegian art glass, Hadeland and Randsfjord in particular, with focus on Willy Johansson, Jon Wilhelm Johansson, Benny Motzfeldt, Gro Bergslien, Arne Jon Jutrem etc. 

I've taken some quick pics to give an idea of parts of the collection (there are 115 pieces in that glass cabinet pictured).

I prefer to not sell individually.
Some of the paperweights are high value, serious inquiries only please.
Please contact me at admin AT wilhelmsen DOT no for details and higher resolution images.

Thanks

To clarify a bit, I will sell individual pieces if I get a good offer.

Thanks
