Description: Medium Colorful Strathearn Paneled Millefiori Paperweight Medium Colorful Strathearn Paneled Millefiori Paperweight. circa 1963-1968. This very attractive paperweight consists of a paneled millefiori pattern with eight sections of 1+2+2 millefiori patterns each separated by a white latticinio twist cane. There is a central ring of six millefiori canes and then a center millefiori cane. The canes are early Scottish millefiori canes on an opaque blue ground. This is a very nice example. A great addition to any collection of Scottish paperweights. 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. The birth of Scottish paperweight making is credited to the glass making family of Salvador Ysart, who moved to Crieff, Scotland in 1922. They worked first at John Moncrieff Ltd and made the earliest Scottish paperweights during that period. In 1946 Salvadore and his sons Augustine and Vincent founded Ysart Brothers Glass and produced glass wares under the Vasart label. Salvador Ysart died in 1955 The company name was later changed to Vasart Glass. Strathearn Glass was formed in a reorganization of Vasart glass in 1963. The new company was owned by Teachers Whiskey. Medium Size: 2 9/16” diameter by 1 7/8” high. Bottom is fire polished. Condition: Very good condition. There are a couple of very faint scratches on the body and some wear on the base. No chips or cracks. Signature: Unsigned, but I guarantee this to be a Strathearn paperweight from Scotland. Allan's Paperweights is owned by Allan Port.
