Description
A large 19th century ‘end of day’ green glass dump paperweight with bubble inclusions. These paperweights were typically made using the left over glass at the end of the working day. This example has quite a lot of surface wear, which gives it a rather attractive matte finish around the lower two thirds that reminds me of sea-glass.
This is heavy enough to use as a door-stop, and judging by the wear on it I think that has been its purpose in the past…
