Title: Another Ysart paperweight - is this one by Salvador?
Post by: paperweights on January 25, 2015, 01:53:30 AM

Another Ysart paperweight that I suspect is by Salvador.  Looking for confirmation or correct attribution.  Thanks in advance.

Large 2 7/8" diameter by just under 2 1/4" tall.  The glass has a lot of bubbles and is slightly grey.  The base is rough and has been ground in the center.  Ground is blue.  I have links to larger pictures below.

Quite a tidy weight, but couuld have been made by any of Vincent, Augustine or Salvador during the Ysart Bros period.

Thanks Kevin.   I continue to sort through my collection and try to figure out the odds and ends that I am unsure about.  I bought this one at an auction a few years back along with another Ysart weight that I will post next.
