Hi Allan.

Useful links.   I think there is a whole PCA Bulletin article waiting to be written about this topic...and I am sure you are the man to do it! ;D

I'm sure many glassworks almost did not sign anything and atichette were made ​​by shopkeepers. many beautiful objects also have never had signatures

I'd love to see an article on the subject, but I am hardly the expert to write it.  But back to the paperweight.  What makes this one somewhat unique is that it has a large bubble in the center like the French antique crown weights.
