Antique American Frit "Friendship" Arrow Pierced Hearts Colorful Orb Paperweight
About the Item
Beautiful antique American "Friendship" paperweight is a high dome, clear and colored glass orb which depicts a pair of Cupid's arrow-pierced white hearts, which are bordered by a curved laurel wreath of white leaves below the hearts and the word, "Friendship", in curved white block letters above the hearts. This design appears to float within the paperweight. The technique is called "frit" and is made of ground glass. The design floats over a speckled multi-color field, featuring six whorl mounds of colored particles and bubbles in red, white, blue, emerald green and golden yellow. Unpolished flat base.
Estate paperweight is purported to have been purchased at the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis, Missouri.
