Murano? Paperweight Help?
« on: February 25, 2014, 10:25:20 PM »
This paperweight is about 3" wide & has the 1852 date cane. I'd love to find out more info on it if someone knows anything!

Thanks!

Yes, it's Murano. In the 1960's and 1970's some makers offered the option of adding a date cane. The 1852 date is the most common.
