AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Exceptionally beautiful Magnum paperweight named 'Fireglow,' designed by Peter Holmes and handcrafted in a limited edition in 1991 by Selkirk Glass, Scotland.
Signed on the display surface: 'Selkirk Glass Scotland - Fireglow - 198/500 - 1991'. Selkirk sticker.
Spherical shape. Rising from a lava-like ground, four spiral bands in white, blue, pink, and gold-brown emerge in dark orange and gold tones. The bands are surrounded by numerous air bubbles of various sizes. Wonderful play of colors and beautiful optical effects — especially under suitable lighting.
Dimensions (H x D): 7.8 x 8.7 cm, 813 g
Very good undamaged condition. As with any older glass object that has been used, slight signs of age and use may be present. These mainly include moderate sliding marks on the base.
Please carefully examine the photos in the large view before making your purchase decision.

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.
