Nice large bubbly paperweight
« on: March 21, 2008, 01:00:13 PM »
Nice , large paperweight, 4 inches wide, 3 1/4" tall, polished base, no signatures.
I suspect quite modern, but well made, i wondered if it may be bohemian??
Any suggestions welcome.

My guess would be modern Chinese.

I've got a somewhat similar one, though with just a single "bubble ring" - almost 5" diameter - flat polished base: mine is Czech (modern Bohemian).

Thanks chaps,
Im leaning towards Bohemian, maybe Beranek or similar, no particular reason though.
Its a nice object, (maybe a pressie for someone!)
