This is a nice example of an Italian art glass paperweight.
The paperweight has a domed top, which narrows in before widening out again to form the lobed base. The latter is polished flat and unmarked. The base contains a layer of multi-coloured ‘millefiori’ canes in ‘close pack’ formation. The canes sit on top of a multi-coloured layer, flecked with gold aventurine.
It has a maximum height of approximately 7.0cm and a diameter of about 7.5cm.
It is in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks.
