ANTIQUE SCRAMBLE PAPERWEIGHT with Star CaneAmerican or English? This is an interesting scramble paperweight full of millefiori canes and one large pastry mold cane in the center. There is a variety of canes including one white six-pointed star cane outlined in green. Note: This listing was updated with new pictures. When I bought this paperweight, I thought it was American, possibly New England Glass Company, but I still don't know who made it. The millefiori canes remind me of early Whitefriars type canes from the 1920s era (Walsh-Walsh, Arculus, Richardson, or other makers). The canes are placed close to the bottom as is the case with Whitefriars paperweights. There is also a possibility that this weight dates from as late as the beginning of the Whitefriars revival in 1951 as the canes also resemble those found in the 1951 Triplex weight. It has the low profile of an English weight. Size: 3" diameter by 1 5/8" high.Good Condition: The paperweight has quite a bit of scratching on the dome and a few small nicks around the side. No moons or impact marks or cracks. The bottom is ground concave. Unsigned. Although many people collect scramble paperweights for their own merit, scrambles are also valuable tools for learning to identify the different colors and canes used by each factory. Allan's Paperweights is owned by Allan Port. read more
