Unmarked, hand‑made Caithness Glass abstract glass paperweight in Magnum size, diameter 9.6 cm, height 9.8 cm, weight 1.2 kg, made in the United Kingdom and dating to 1975–2000, in very good condition with minor signs of wear.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Spectacular unidentified paperweight, most likely designed and manufactured by Caithness Glass, Scotland. Since the paperweight bears neither a signature nor a sticker, a definitive attribution is not possible. However, the design and craftsmanship clearly indicate Caithness Glass as the producer. A high-quality handcrafted collectible!
Spherical shape. The paperweight features two large air bubbles stacked on top of each other, each surrounded by six smaller air bubbles. The upper bubbles are connected by a delicate web of golden glass particles, while the lower ones are adorned with blue-toned glass particles. The formations float above a violet background, which is also covered with numerous air bubbles. A wonderful play of colors and beautiful optical effects—especially under suitable lighting.
Dimensions (H x D): 9.8 x 9.6 cm, 1200 g
Very good age-appropriate condition without damage. As with any older glass object that has been used, slight signs of age and use can be found. These mainly include moderate sliding marks on the base.
Please carefully examine the photos in the large view before making your purchase decision.
Note:
Due to internet restrictions on color display and your monitor settings, the colors of the product photos may differ from the original you receive.
The 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.
