This beautiful vintage piece comes from a Georgetown estate. It’s a vibrant mid-century art glass paperweight features a classic concentric millefiori ("thousand flowers") motif. Hand-blown with precision, the piece showcases a central red and green star cane surrounded by tiers of sunny yellow, emerald green, and crimson murrine. The intricate canes are encased in a heavy, clear lead glass dome that provides beautiful magnification and light refraction.
A quintessential example of the 20th-century glassmaker's art, this piece fits perfectly within a Mid-Century Modern or eclectic bookshelf vignette. Its substantial weight and smooth, polished finish make it as functional as it is decorative.
