Help needed for identification.

(1/1)

essi:
Paperweights are not my normal field of collecting but Bought this today as the canes seemed quite good.
The glass covering is not very clear.
sorry about the photo quality.
It is 75mm in diameter and 64mm high.
Any help with the maker, country of origin or date would be appreciated.

Murano I suspect from the canes

essi:
Thanks for the pointer Christine. Looking at images online the ones that seem to correspond with mine are made by Fratelli Toso.
Some of those weights have the same scrambled arrangement with tiny bits of copper/gold beneath the canes.
Seems to be a sixties or seventies date attributed to them.
Another weight to put on the bookshelf.
Thanks again,
Tim
