just brilliant

and more recently for Pukeberg and Rejmyre glass works

and these are really lovely

to cheer my lot / A vow which raised sweet pleasure's glow / And seal'd my bliss - "forget me not"

Tis the season for the hard-charging donkey as I post this

Satisfying Brass/Bronze Nugget Form Paper Weight quistgaard just brilliantI really don't know a thing about how this came to be, but I find it quite a satisfying thing, and it makes a very nice sculptural paperweight. Great feel in the hand, too. Based on the color, I believe it is likely bronze rather than brass, but am not 100% certain. I would guess artist made, but there is no mark I can see. 2 1 16" w x 1 1 8" d x 13 16" t and weighs about 5 ounces.
