AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Spectacular glass object, designed and manufactured by Ingrid Donhauser toward the end of the 20th century. High-quality handcrafted design piece with signature near the base.

Spherical form. The paperweight features in the center two side-by-side large air bubbles, reminiscent of the eyes of an insect. The air bubbles are surrounded by a web of dark glass threads. At the base there is an irregular colorless cushion with a beautiful pattern of blue and amber oval shapes. Wonderful play of colors and lovely optical effects – especially with suitable lighting. A very beautiful and decorative collectible item!

Dimensions (H x W): 7.8 x 8.1 cm, 719 g

Very good undamaged condition. As with any older glass object that has been used, there may be slight signs of aging and wear. This includes, above all, moderate scuff marks on the base.

Please look closely at the photos in the large view!

Note:

Due to Internet color limitations and your monitor settings, the colors of the product photos may differ from the original you will receive.

Stands, lighting accessories, and measuring accessories shown in the photos are not part of the offer!

Seller's Story

I have been a passionate collector of high-quality glass objects for several years. The focus of my collection is on glass objects from Germany, Czechia (Bohemia), Italy (Murano), and Scandinavia, designed and produced in the 20th century. Another emphasis is on Scottish paperweights. Since 2019, I have been offering my surplus objects on Catawiki. Maybe there's something interesting for you too! Should an issue with your order occur as an exception, please let me know before leaving a negative review. Fair people always find a fair solution! Wishing you good luck with your bidding.
