<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 3295269, member: 97383&quot;]I collect antique &amp; collectible glass. Below are photos of a glass paperweight made by Paul Stankard, signed &amp; dated 2001, 3 1/4 in. dia. Stankard has been hailed as the greatest paperweight artist in history, &amp; all his paperweights are made entirely of lamp-worked glass. This one is decorated with flowers, leaves, seed pods, insects, &amp; a pate-de-verre head on the underside. The theme of this piece is <i>with death there is regeneration &amp; life.</i> Stankard&#039;s glass can be seen in many museums around the world including: The Corning Museum of Glass, The Victoria &amp; Albert Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Art Institute of Chicago, The Hokkaido Museum of Modern Art (Sapporo, Japan), The Museum of Fine Arts - Boston, &amp; many others.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]872100[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]872102[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]872103[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
