According to the artist this was one of a series of approx. 25 weights - made ca. 1984 - in the style of the 3-dimensional bouquets found in antique paperweights. This one features a multi-layered dahlia with blue, pink & mauve striped petals arranged with 2 wheat flowers in blue & white and pale-yellow. Completing the bouquet are sprays of gypsophila (baby’s breath) and dark-green foliage. The stems are tied with a pink ribbon. At the base of one of the stems is a tiny blue & white DT signature cane. The polished, concave base has a broad basal rim.
