Title: Identification of signature on paperweight and perfume bottle please
Post by: Felicity on August 20, 2014, 02:52:29 PM

Hello there,
I bought this paperweight and perfume bottle several years ago at separate times but I've never been able to identify the maker. I wonder if anyone can help please?

The paperweight just has what looks like PJM engraved, photo isn't very good I'm afraid. The perfume bottle has PJM 96.

Thanks for your help.
Felicity

HI Felicity,

I am new to this message board so forgive me if you have already resolved your quest. If not, could you send a better photo of your perfume bottle? We have one listed in our Virtual Museum (www.perfumebottles.org) as an example. These are considered Studio Glass Art, and with the 96 on the one, I suspect it was made in 1996, and is likely American. I don't recognize the PJM, but perhaps if we see it looks like St Claire technique or another technique we can narrow it down. Don't know if you are in the US or elsewhere, but the Wheaton Glass in southern New Jersey has an awesome collection of paper weights. You can check out their website for further details.

Cheers,
Susan
