Title: Paperweight Signed Jerusalem 1 31 60 ID Help PLS & TY. ID = Studio Kan
Post by: strife on October 27, 2014, 04:36:29 PM

Heya folks.

Picked this paperweight up at auction recently and my own research has yielded nothing but a couple of Ebay/Etsy listings with sketchy details. It's a lovely little piece about 3" x 2.5" and is signed "Jerusalem" and what looks like 1 31 60. There is something else etched on the base but no idea what it is.

Any info on the origins of this little piece would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much.

Hi Tony,

Thanks much, I appreciate the help.

Do you have any links or anything to info regarding this "Studio Kan"? This is the same info I discovered and outside of the sketchy info on the ebay/etsy listings I can't find any record of this glass house whatsoever. The only reference to it is in the auctions where someone is trying to sell a similar piece.

I'm pretty good at doing research but I can't find any record of this "Studio Kan" other than the fact that an ebay seller says someone told him that's where the piece came from.

Thanks for any info..
