Lot 125
Paul Stankard compound bouquet paperweight,
containing three red St. Anthony's Fire flowers, six blue forget-me-nots, buds, pale green leaves, and stems, on clear ground. This "classic" floral paperweight most likely dates from the late 1970s, as a similar bouquet from 1978 and another one featuring a St. Anthony's Fire flower from 1976 are both displayed in the book, Paul J. Stankard: Homage to Nature (pages 82 and 51). Thus, it would seem, creating the distinctive red petals of the St. Anthony's Fire flower is just another species that Stankard has added to his repertoire. "Flower blossoms are Paul's passion, and his specialty. Figuring out how to make different varieties, how to translate each flower's particular intricacies into the unforgiving medium of glass, has been at the core of his art for years."-Paul J. Stankard: Homage to Nature. "PS" signature cane embedded in side.
Diameter 3". $2250-3000
