Thanks, Nick. Murano was also my initial thought, but since I acquired this one I've seen numerous similar examples listed as Bohemian. I appreciate the clarity!

I agree it is Murano.  But some people listing paperweights for sale focus more on possible sale price than on accurate attribution ( twas ever thus...).
