St Louis 1974 millefiori French glass art paperweight newel post. This beautiful large very heavy newel post is of a large glass ball containing a carpet of close packed complex millefiori canes drawn down at the base and to a brass fixing rose also contains the initial date cane. 3 ½ – 6 1/2. This information is from the original Collectors Catalogue. I’m not sure how useful it is but I’ve taken a video to try to get across how beautiful this new post is. Largely, we believe, they are Scottish, French and American and their values seem to vary hugely. So many are stunning! We are total paperweight amateurs (although learning more every day), so have copied, largely verbatim, the original Collector’s notes including his measurements. The Collector was knowledgeable and fastidious with his weights. All were stored in locked glass-fronted oak display cabinets, most have their original boxes, are catalogued impeccably and for many we have original invoices as well. We believe the weights we post are in excellent condition. He marked in his notes when this wasn? T the case and we have reproduced those comments on the description. International buyers are very welcome but please note. We hope you love our paperweights. If you have any questions, would like additional photos or to see others in the Collection please just ask.
