Baccarat Macédoine Millefiori Paperweight Modern

Modern Baccarat Macédoine Millefiori Paperweight. This paperweight is made up of multi-colored striped millefiori segments arranged at (mostly) right angles. This is a contemporary paperweight made for only a short time. It is acid etched with the Baccarat signature on the base. This is a great example of a unique Baccarat design. The Macédoine is a uniquely Baccarat style in which the short sections of latticinio (twists, filigree, lace) are arranged in a quilt-like pattern with many of the sections at right angles to each other. The modern version was produced in the 1950s – 1970s and is similar to yet different from the antique version. Please Note: The stand shown in the pictures is not included with the paperweight. It is shown for illustration only. Note on white glare : Please ignore the white areas, they are glare from the light. Baccarat was founded in 1776 in Alsace-Lorraine with the name of Verrerie de Sainte Anne. The original location was near the town of Baccarat. Today the firm is known as Compagnie des Cristalleries de Baccarat. In 1952, Paul Jokelson approached Baccarat with the idea of making sulphide paperweights again. In 1953 Baccarat resumed paperweight production with a series of sulphide paperweights the first of which were the unsuccessful Eisenhower sulphide followed by the Queen Elizabeth coronation sulphide. Millefiori paperweight production was resumed in 1957 and lampwork paperweights were re-introduced in the early 1970s. Baccarat stopped making this type of fine glass paperweights in 2002. You can read more about the Baccarat paperweights in his book Baccarat Paperweights – two centuries of beauty by Paul Dunlop or one of the older books on paperweights in general, such as The Encyclopedia of Glass Paperweights by Paul Hollister or World Paperweights by Robert Hall. Large size: 2 7/8″ diameter by just over 2 1/8″ high. The base is polished flat. Condition: Excellent condition with no scratches, chips or cracks. Signature: Signed with the Baccarat acid etched signature on the base. Allan’s Paperweights is owned by Allan Port. If in doubt, please check with me first.
