Spectacular Rare Bohemian Heavily Beaded Gilt Jeweled Cut Glass Paperweight Vase

  

Spectacular Rare Bohemian Heavily Beaded Gilt Jeweled Cut Glass Paperweight Vase. A truly exquisite piece of antique glass.

The top portion of the vase has six panels alternating between Coralene gilded jeweled / beaded panels and cut geometric panels. At the bottom of the vase portion is a 1 high area where all of the panels are Coralene, gilded, and beaded. There is a metal collar between the vase and the paperweight base which conceals a repaired break. Circa late 1800's / early 1900's. Size: top 3" diameter; 10 3/4" high. The collar is a repair which conceals a break between the top of the vase and the paperweight bottom.

The vase is very heavy and a good percentage of the weight is the solid glass base.
