    Hi Pread, Looks like a really interesting piece, do you think that you could get a clearer pic of the mark on the base?

    hi
    thankyou for your email i have added one more picture of my item.i have been on all most every paperweight website to try and find out who made this item.but still no good...

    Hi again, I have had no luck I am afraid and have been racking my brain but no idea! The piece itself looks a bit like an obelisk to me - it is really nice piece - have you recently acquired it?

    The mark that you have shown in the photos is not really clear enough to rule out any other possible marks or marking there but from your son describing a Buggatti mark and the mark that I can roughly see - I can understand what you mean. Are there no other marks on it at all? The mark that you have photo'd is it on the base? back? or side? Thank you : )

    hi.
    i brought the item around 2 months ago from my local charity shop costing me (£1.00).there are no other marks on the item just what you can see two capital b back to back.i have been trying so hard to find the maker but like you i have had no luck.
    i was told it could be a very very rare item.
    sorry to sound abit silly but what do you mean (obelisk)
    regards
    paul

    Hi Paul - a great buy : )

    Forgive the links!

    I will keep it in my mind. Run it by a few other glass types I know!! but not promising I can help. Hopefully via here someone will be able to help you or you might also like to try posting it on the Glass Message Board at http://www.glassmessages.com/ if you look at the top section of the forum - that part is for 'indentification'. Good Luck and as I say I will keep you in mind.

    Pread I am pretty sure it is a 'Runa' Bergdala studio glass piece -

    If you scroll down this page a little there is a blue one on a black light box base:

    It has that back to back BB mark, also:
