Glass Millville NJ South Jersey Umbrella Engraved Inkwell Paperweight Circa 1890 Nearly 9 3/4 high with lid A polished pontil Beautifully engraved with the name Annabelle A wonderfully formed umbrella with extremely pleasant multicolored chips of glass. The dominant colors are a striking combination of blues, that stand out amid a variety of the contrasting colors. I’ve only seen other engraved examples at the American Museum of Glass in Millville, NJ. My research has uncovered the fact that Whittall Tatum engraved varying peices for girls that were celebrating their 16th birthdays. This inkwell came out of a 50 year old Gloucester County, New Jersey collection. Another rare aspect is that the bottle in the center portion of the weight has been manipulated into a tapered form. Which is not typical! Being wider at the shoulders and tapering gradually toward the top of the lower weight. Which makes it clearly stand out amongst other inkwell paperweights. For accuracy I mention the minute pinhead sized, shallow nip off the top edge of the bottles lip. It can barely be seen. Also for accuracy, a BB sized slightly rough, but clear spot in the side of the weight. I’ve seen these markings on glass occasionally before and I have concluded that it is either another hot piece in the lehr briefly coming into contact with it or a droplet of water or sweat. It is definitely not a bruise. There is some typical flaking and bruising at the very bottom edges of the ground stopper base which are shown in the pics. They can easily be ground and polished if desired. Personally, I wouldn’t bother. The inner neck of the bottle is also ground and does not reveal the stoppers flakes while inserted. In other words it displays beautifully. This peice has everything going for it! Rarity of engraving, beautiful colors and a highly unusual and pleasing form.

This Art Glass Paperweight is from the late William Gaskills Cherished Collection. Gaskill was a former President of the National Paperweight Collectors Association (PCA) and an avid and very astute Art Glass Paperweight Collector. After His passing, his collection was on loan (for approximately 3 years from 2006 to 2009) to the Museum of American Glass (Wheaton Village) in Millville, NJ, which is now known as Wheaton Village Arts and Cultural Center. Gaskills highly regarded and very extensive Art Glass Paperweight Collection was on display in their most prominent area of the Museum at that time. Just prior to being put on display at the Museum, Lawrence Selman of the Renown L. Selman was commissioned to do an appraisal of the entire collection. Selman is known worldwide for his expertise in the field of Art Glass Paperweights and in 2001, Selman was awarded the honor of being named by the Paperweight Collectors Association, one of the Top Ten People of the 20. Century to influence the paperweight art form. Gaskills collection was considered to be one of the largest gatherings of Antique American Art Glass Paperweights known to be in private hands. In 2009 a family member took possession of the entire collection and it went safely and quietly into storage for approximately 6 years, from 2009 to 2015. In 2016 I was very proud and honored to have had the opportunity to acquire a large portion of Mr. Gaskills Wonderful and Cherished Art Glass Paperweight Collection.

Short History of Millville Glass Company. Millville Glass Company /. Was know as one of the Largest Glass Makers in the Millville, NJ area (Circa 1880) and likewise the entire country. Southern New Jersey has been called “The Cradle of American Glass” for the same reason that it could be called The Cradle of American Asparagus Farming. There’s a lot of sand in the soil, and sand (silica) is what is melted to make glass. Glass factories have been here for over 200 years, but it wasn’t until the late 1960s that someone decided to call attention to it. That someone was Frank Wheaton Jr. Grandson of the founder of Wheaton Industries, one of the biggest companies in glassmaking. One of my first hobbies was collecting art glass paperweights.
