An unusual Scottish butterfly paperweight

(1/3) > >>

cfosterk:
I thought I'd have a cheeky bid (not expecting to be successful) - looks like an Ysart Bros attempt or possibly Vasart.

Other views would be appreciated!!

KevinH:
I wil get back to you on this one. But for now, it could be useful to compare some of the canes (including the parts that make up the complex canes) to others in items from, say, Perthshire Paperweights.

cfosterk:
Hmm....perthshire style canes? I hadn't noticed anything even vaguely perthshire about the weight tbh

the alternating green then blue single canes then stirred something but the 'complex' canes I thought closer to 'vasart' examples.

the wings on the butterfly are confusing too....i'm sure I've seen elements in a number of weights...

KevinH:
Sorry to have taken a while to get back to this. I was trying to find examples of identical or similar canes. My thoughts are not brief, so I will deal with things in separate posts, ending with some photos of a weight I have that may or may not assist.
