Probably an early Ysart Brothers paperweight set on a semi-translucent amber ground. The 4-cane centre was a feature often found in weights made by Salvador Ysart. The canes are mainly 2-colour tubes (pale-blue/white, green/white & mulberry) filled with internal stars (pale-orange & red). The excep..
A design rarely seen in German post-classic paperweights: 8 turquoise spokes - made from a cane split lengthwise - radiating out from a complex centre cane over a spatter ground.

A neat cartwheel design - probably from the later Strathearn period - with well-made canes in a harmonious range of muted colours - mauve, pale-green, smokey-blue, lemon and white - on a mottled translucent amber ground (appears black!).

The mottled lemon cushion and the unusual colours of the millefiori canes give this 9-spoke design a highly distinctive note. A silvery-cream centre cane is encircled by 6 ivory canes with a black dot in the middle. Fine, virtually straight latticinio spokes divide the cushion into 9 panels which co..
