GLASS PAPERWEIGHTS - By Patricia McCawley | |

ISBN: 0850972019 | £12.00

| |
| An aura of mystery and fascination has surrounded glass making from the earliest times. Today's paperweights are still made by hand and the process, absorbing to follow, differs very little from that used in the 19th century for both millefiori and the flower and fruit subject weights. The examples illustrated in this selection are representative of the variety of the finest weights, antique and modern, and together with the diagrams of canes and cuttings, and the descriptions of the various factories, their colour and design preferences will help any collector in the appreciation and identification of paperweights needed in building up a collection.
