Reasonably well known modern American maker who until recently was selling weights as himself on ebay.

Does some lovely work and you will quite often find a heart cane in them.

Can't see mine (might of sold it!) but certain my Dad could post a pic of his!

Does make lovely weights, well worth adding to your collection.

Clicking in to his other items, and then completed listings, gives a lot of his pieces.

Particularly like this one
