Large Pairpoint Faceted Red Rose Paperweight. This paperweight features a red rose and eight leaves placed over clear ground. The rose has fourteen variegated red petals in a 4+4+3+3 crimp pattern plus two tiny petals in the center. In the typical Pairpoint style, there are four wide green sepals and four skinny sepals. It has one top facet. The paperweight is unsigned but I guarantee that it was made by Pairpoint glass. A beautiful example of modern Pairpoint production. 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. Pairpoint Glass has a long history extending back to its earliest origins with Mount Washington Glass in 1837. Owners and locations changed a number of times and the name Pairpoint was first used in the 1890s. The original Pairpoint companies were located in New Bedford, Massachusetts. In 1938, it was reorganized as Gunderson Glass Works by owner Robert Gunderson and later renamed the Gunderson – Pairpoint Glass Works in 1952. The name was acquired by Robert Bryden and the company moved briefly to East Wareham, MA in 1957 where it operated as the Pairpoint Glass Company. They leased production facilities in Spain. The last New Bedford factory burned down in 1965. In its latest iteration, Robert Bryden moved Pairpoint to Sagamore, Massachusetts in 1970. It continues to operate at that location today (2024) although under new owners. Size: 3″ diameter by just under 2″ high. The base is polished flat. Condition: Very good to excellent condition. On close examination two very tiny pinpricks can be found on the edge of the top facet. These may have been caused by cutting the facet. No other damage found. As was typical in Pairpoints early glass, there are some bubbles and tiny bits of white pot debris in the glass. Signature: Unsigned but I guarantee this paperweight to be by Pairpoint Glass. Allan’s Paperweights is owned by Allan Port. If in doubt, please check with me first. Please do not ask me to declare this a gift.
