Orient & Flume Crystal Cased Floral Greg Held Paperweight 1984 with Intact Paper label

International bidders welcome!!!  Hello, you are bidding on a beautiful vintage 1984 Orient & Flume paperweight with a lovely blue floral design.  The flower and leaves are complex in their coloring,  with attractive leaves, all encased in crystal clear glass. Please note the skillful realism of the leaves with their scalloped edging. 

What is most unusual is the FACETING to magnify and add complexit to the design.  It is rare to find faceting with O&F paperweights. 

There is also an O&F 84 signature cane imbedded in the weight, which is not found in many of their weights. 

The base has the original circular O&F trademark label, differing from later ones in that it also includes the company’s location, Chico, Calif.  Etched on the base are Orient & Flume G Held 1984, who was one of their premiere artists   This weight measures approximately 2 and 1/2 inches across. The overall condition of this paperweight is excellent, truly a prize to add to someone’s paperweight collection.  Please note that any spots on my photos are from my camera flash. International bidders will need to have their shipping costs calculated at auction’s end.  Please check my auctions and my ebay store for other Orient and Flume florals from this time period, Caithness and Perthshire paperweights,  plus other unique collectibles to save on shipping.  Thank you for looking in and happy bidding!!!
