No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

Glass cat paperweight
« on: July 31, 2022, 06:28:12 PM »
This paperweight is 4" (10.2 cm) high x 3" (7.6 cm) wide x 2.5" (6.3 cm) deep, unmarked. Molded with a smooth back and base, no mold lines, no marks. Thinking maybe Scandinavian, perhaps Pukeberg (?) but cannot find another like it. Has anyone seen this before and knows who made it?

Updated images. I also went over the whole piece with a magnifying glass to make sure it is not marked. It is not.  :(  Have looked at hundreds of images and can still not find another example.
