Ysart Fountain or fake? No ID cane.
« on: July 04, 2021, 09:44:00 PM »
Hi,

I've got this paperweight that looks like Ysart Fountain but doesn't have an H cane or any other signature. Is it fake?

Height is about 8cm.

Thanks!

Hi Madhatterrus,

Your fountain weight is ok. It's from the 1970s period of Paul Ysart's studio work. Not all weights from that period were signed.
