The bottom is signed William Manson 5 NR 2001 1/1

I have never heard of any faked Willie Manson weights.

Agreed - I don't see why anyone would fake Willie Manson pieces: they are not particularly expensive.

And this is a typical Willie Manson butterfly anyway.

Hi, The paperweight should read William Manson Snr.
I am sure he did this to identify paperweights he made while his son William Manson Jnr
was working with him in his studio.

I think that's what the 5 NR is: a misinterpretation

[chopin-liszt]

If somebody else could make them as well as Willie can, they would be daft not to be using their own name and making their own reputation.
