Presentation Subject:
When Glass Became Art: The Lasting Legacy of Antique Paperweights – Art, Aesthetics & Identification
Antique paperweights are more than historical curiosities - they are masterpieces in glass that continue to inspire today’s glass artists. In this presentation, we’ll explore the artistry and aesthetics of the 19th-century’s most important makers, share tips for identifying their work, and uncover the defining design elements of the Classical Era. Along the way, we’ll trace how these timeless creations shaped the look and feel of contemporary paperweight design.
