Unknown floral paperweight, snapped pontil
« on: October 20, 2014, 11:13:44 AM »
Hi Guys, can anybody help me with this paperweight please.
Its 2 3/4" across and 1 3/4" tall. It has a snapped pontil with a good amount of natural wear to the base.
The dome has some very slight raises that can be felt, like it hasn't been completely smooth off.
There 4 flowers and 6 leafs which are made of paperweight type canes, also around these canes there are striation in the glass.
Any help most appreciated, regards Wolfie
Added: also the glass looks a bit yellowy in the pic but its clear, just the poor light it was taken in.
Something you like, mail me! :)
