Light Blue Discoloured Glass Paperweight
« on: February 24, 2010, 01:00:16 AM »
Hi all,  Can anyone identify this paperweight.  I have not a clue when it comes to paperweights and have acquired quite a few over the years.  Any help will be appreciated.  Many thanks

Murano, mid (?) 20th centrury. Maker may be difficult to track down.

Chinese, 1980s or 90s. I have a smaller version with the identical canes.
I collect Scottish and Italian paperweights and anything else that strikes my fancy.
