This is a BEAUTIFUL VINTAGE paperweight from the Nature Gems line from Iminac.  Embedded in the clear glass is a hermit crab and shell with some sand and gravel on the bottom.  The crab looks like it's coming right out of its shell to crawl along the sand.  This paperweight is about 4 inches tall (including the black plastic base) and about 3.5 inches in diameter.  This paperweight is in GOOD CONDITION.  Unfortunately, it looks like it was previously dropped, and there is a bruise within the glass.  The bruise goes around most of the circumference and is larger in some places (it's actually thinnest at the front of the piece).  This bruise resembles bubbles, so it adds to the "undersea" motif.  Otherwise, there are no chips or cracks at the surface.  There are a couple of superficial scratches at the top of the piece.
