1960's-70s Barovier and Toso Glass Paper Weight , imported by Koscherak Brothers of New York. This paperweight weighs just under 1 1/2 lbs, and measures approximately 3 1/4 inches tall. It has a maximum diameter of about 2 3/4 inches. This beautiful weight has an internal cordons to oro (cords of gold) pattern, with translucent pink near the top and green near the bottom; there is a clear glass casing. The flat base is ground and polished.
This vintage piece is unsigned but is likely by Barovier and Toso, or perhaps Fratelli Toso.
