About the Item

A striking rectangular resin paperweight from the 1970s, featuring a delicate skeleton leaf, gilded before being suspended in layers of black and translucent resin. The minimalist, monolithic form—perfectly parallelepiped—gives the object a sculptural presence, while the organic inclusion adds a poetic contrast. This unique piece plays with light and opacity, revealing the fine veining of the leaf through the resin’s depth. Both decorative and functional, it’s a beautiful example of mid-century French craftsmanship blending nature and modern materials.
