AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Four beautiful handmade mouth-blown paperweights (presse-papiers), clear crystal glass, from the second half of the 20th century.

The smallest one has an inward red base with a silver-colored rim and nine clear, well-defined bubbles. Diameter 7 cm, weight 400 g.

A somewhat oval model with a purple aubergine base into which, with a bit of imagination, you can see the shape of a top hat. Above it, gold glitter floats, surrounded by large and small air bubbles. Diameter 7 cm, height 8.2 cm, weight 700 g.

A large clear specimen with embedded lilac threads and a bubble in the shape of a mushroom. At the bottom, the letters WM are engraved (William Manson, a British glassblower?). Diameter 10 cm, weight 1.3 kg.

The other large specimen has a concentration of bubbles in the middle, surrounded by smaller air bubbles. Diameter 10 cm, weight 1.3 kg.

All four specimens are completely intact.
