Title: ID Help on abstract paperweight. ID = Robert Burch, USA
Post by: paperweights on March 14, 2015, 07:52:53 PM
If this hadn't been signed, I would have guessed Eickholt or Nourot.  But there is a signature that looks like "Bail '87" or "Baul '97".  It is clearly (to me) b y an advanced glass worker.  Any suggestions on who it might be.  Thanks in advance.

Hi Alan,

This is American artist Robert Burch. He is well known for these pearl necklace style control bubbles.

Thanks Eric.  And he is from my part of the world, so I should have known him.  I will add him to my list of local artists.
