ID help please for my paperweight
« on: September 10, 2015, 05:46:20 PM »
Hello, friends.  Could anyone please help me identify this paperweight.  Its colors are quite pastel with unique royal blue accent canes in the center. The base is grid with a star.  The work is very detailed and skillfully done.  Thank you.

At first glance, my vote would be Pairpoint.

Hello,

I agree with mildawg. The pale pastel colored canes are common with Pairpoint sometimes the canes are even transparent with very little pigment. The heart silhouette is also a recurring feature in many Pairpoint complex canes.
