- Description
- Tall domed, hand blown paperweight of tinted green glass, very rough on bottom with smooth depression at centre where broken from punty rod. Inside glass is flowerpot with two large five petalled blossoms, one above the other, formed in a crude, but delicate, manner from a myriad of tiny bubbles. Seems to have been blown in three stages, the first containing the pot and lower blossom, the second including the upper blossom and encompassing the first, the third forming the outer globe enclosing the whole.
