Help with ID of paperweight, please - possible Ysart?
« on: August 23, 2014, 06:50:05 PM »
I acquired this in a job lot of rather ordinary paperweights and wondered if it was by one of the Ysart Bros? It appears to be an older paperweight by the look of the glass and there is an interesting outer ring of complex canes. Any help would be appreciated.

Very likely made in the "Ysart Brothers Glass" period (1946 - 1955/6). Could have been made by any of the men in those years.

Thank you Kevin. I thought it was but still need the reassurance of the expert.
