WHITEFRIARS CAITHNESS PAPERWEIGHT PURPLE Flowers Beautiful Faceted Signed
whitefriars
Comments Off
This is a gorgeous lead crystal Whitefriars Caithness paperweight consisting of three purple lampwork flowers interspersed by three stems with two bright green leaves on each. Within each leaf are five small darker leaves showing an interesting contrast. The purple flowers have a yellow star center encircling a millefiori cane. Around this ensemble is a ring of fine lavender millefiori canes. In one of the canes is the Whitefriars signature cane, (the silhouette of a robed standing figure–a White Friar). The paperweight has eight side facets and one top facet. It is beautifully cut on the bottom and going up the sides to the layout, resembling a sunburst or star cut. The colors are crisp and bright. Condition: excellent with no scratches that I can see or bruises, chips or other damage. I can not see, but can feel, a few rough places on the bottom ridges of the starburst, indicating only expected minor wear from use. When Whitefriars closed in 1981 Caithness bought the right to use the Whitefriars name, logo and stock of millefiori canes. This paperweight does not have the Caithness name on it or a date, but does have 29/50 on one of the starburst “rays” on the bottom. Dimensions: 3 4/16 diameter; 2 7/16 height. Please see all of my pictures as they are part of the description. The stand is not included, used only for display.
