Sand Light Blue and White Swirls - Paperweight
« on: February 01, 2010, 10:19:21 AM »
This is a beautiful paperweight. There is a round clear label, marked in gold print. 'Made by T.G.V England'. In the centre of the swirls is a large clear bubble and the texture of the swirls looks like sand. The pics does not do it justice.  The paperweight is has a misty look to it and is not clear like modern pieces.  Can anyone help identify this piece please.  Kind Regards!
