Went to a local Antiques Show today and picked up one special item; this fabulous "pulled feather" design paperweight that is Lime Green in a pulled pattern over Royal Blue (almost purple amethyst) and with gold iridescence all over. It has a rough pontil underneath with NO markings and measures 3 1/2" in diameter by 2 3/4" tall. The dealer selling it stated that she had accumulated a wonderful collection of glass paperweights over her career, that she had eventually sold but had always held on to this one....her favourite......I agreed it was special.

** Made on the Island of Murano by Barovier and Toso and designed by Fenicio/Zebrati in 1950's
That's really nice. Nice use of Lime Green and Blue.
Very Nice....May we have a Base shot - Thanks!!

WOW!! Thank you eye4beauty! That certainly IS it! Barovier & Toso and with an original label to boot.... can't get more definite than this. I think that my Cobalt with lime feathering is more stunning, but the one shown is quite nice too. Thank you for finding it for me. Thank you also AnneLanders for the love. Bob
