Hi.

The top two look like St Mandé or Grenelle, the bottom one is a Baccarat Dupont from the 1920s.

 Hello ,

    Thank you.   They were sold to me as antique bohemian.  I thought the 3rd looked like baccarat but was unsure about the other 2.   I figured the bird looking canes in the first weight would help with the ID , I had seen pictures of a St. Mande weight with similar small canes that were described as dragonflys. 


Thanks  Again ,


John

Welcome to the Board, John.

For future posts, please keep threads to one item each (unless they are definitely known to be from the same maker), otherwise it can get confusing when there are several replies all mixed up.

   Hello ,

     No problem. I have been reading the board for quite some time and decided it was time to join in. I had purchased the 3 weights pictured along with a Chinese Pansy as a group and they had just arrived yesterday.  The three pictured were sold as Bohemian Antiques. I have a large collection but I don't usually collect Millefiori weights and have not yet collected antiques.   I suspected the baccarat and could only guess on the other two.   


Thanks ,

John
