Any Ideas ?
« on: October 25, 2009, 12:07:43 AM »
I'm hoping for some ideas on the identification of this pretty little paperweight.  It measures about 2" across and stands about 1" high.  The bottom is flat and polished.

Thanks, in anticipation.

It looks like antik Bohemian to me.

Othetr than brighter and more "delicate" canes, what is the defining feature (if any) between "Bohemian" and "German" weights like this which have a white "swirl" ground? I find it confusing.
