A recent purchase and the largest I have ever seen. It is around 8" tall . Has anyone seen a similar weight ?

Thanks ,

Hello ,


   Thanks for the reply.   Have you ever seem something similar in this size?   Is there a possibility it could have been made at Pairpoint. It came from a collection in Eastern Massachusetts close to the Pairpoint factory that included several Pairpoint paperweights and perfumes .


Thanks ,

John

It's a modern Murano copy of a Millville Water Lily. I have one in my collection.

Good morning ,


    Thanks , I had never seen anything as large as it is so I had to buy it.   I always have a hard time tying to figure out who made a crimp weight. 



Thanks ,

John
