Trio of Glass Flower Paperweights in Green, Yellow and Red

Three flowers, three colours, one cheerful group. This mixed trio brings together a pale green and white bloom, a sunny yellow one and a red flower with a green centre, each worked in glass and sealed under a clear dome that magnifies the petals and catches the light. Because no two match, they read as a collected little gathering rather than a matched set, which is part of their charm. The domes have the smooth, cool weight that makes a paperweight so good to pick up and turn in the hand.

The three step down in size, the largest at 6 x 7 cm, the middle at 5.5 x 6 cm and the smallest at 3.5 x 5.5 cm, so they line up in a gentle graduated row on a desk, a shelf or a windowsill. A varied group like this gives you more to look at than a single weight, each one a different bloom to catch the eye as you pass.

All three are in good order, clear and bright, with the small internal bubbles and variations that are natural to handmade glass, all shown closely in the photographs.

Cluster them on a stack of books, run them along a sunny sill where the light can pass through the glass, or scatter them across a desk and a shelf so the different colours draw the eye around a room. The mix of green, yellow and red sits happily against wood, cream and other glass, and works with almost any scheme. Tactile and easy to love, they make a lovely gift for a glass collector or anyone who likes a little colour close to hand.
