    Having sold my not-very-interesting floral shop buy paperweights, I came across this one on Sunday.
    Much more interesting! Unsigned and, according to antiquerose, made in China within the last 12 years. Some talented glass maker did a great job.
    The ceramic tea light holder was a recent thrift shop find, and the paperweight fits perfectly on top. No idea how old the tea light holder might be, but it does still have about half of it's gold foil label. "Light the tealight and see the crystal ball glow....something". Can't make out the other word/words.
    Anyway, I hope you like it.
    Thanks, all.
    Bonnie

      Hi Bonnie. Nice weight but it is not Murano. It is a Chinese paper weight probably made in the last 12 or so years. Still it displays very well and looks great in the Tea Light holder and fits there just Super !

      Hi rose - thanks for the information! I don't often see paperweights that I want to buy, but thought this one was really lovely. Very tactile and weighty.

      That's just too funny how it looks like they were made for each other!!! Great paperweight.
