For your consideration is a striking, vintage, Orient and Flume art glass paperweight. It is signed and dated 1979. The paperweight measures approximately 4 1/4 inches high and a little over 2 1/2 inches at its widest part. It is a frosted pale gold color with three tiger lilies on the sides. It has green and dark brown leaves and stems. In some settings, light iridescent hues can be seen on the “glowing” gold background. It has pulled feather designs toward the bottom. I have taken photos both inside and out. Its a beautiful piece without chips, scratches or cracks. The bottom reads Orient and Flume, 1979. The signature is hard to see but can been seen clearly on the bottom edge with a loupe. It also has the original Orient and Flume tag on the base.
