For your consideration is a fabulous, studio art glass paperweight done by Correia. It is a little over 2 3/4 inches tall and 3 inches at its widest point. A black and silver striped, applied glass, snake is coiled around the top of the paperweight. It has a silver forked tongue which is also applied. The paperweight is black and very reflective. The photos make the snake look blue but its more black and silver. It is signed Correia and numbered WSSK 2.84.8. There are no chips or cracks. A few scratches appear on the base where it rests. No scratches appear on the top. You are merely seeing reflections of light. (this was difficult to photograph) Its a fabulous piece of art glass. I have a few other snake paperweights listed.
