Also shown are techniques of millefiori, lampworking, sulphides, and crimping, as well as footage of how weights are made today. Included are views of paperweight making at Baccarat, Saint-Louis, Wheaton Village, and the studios of Paul Stankard and Victor Trabucco.

    Back in early 2000's a friend introduced me to millefiori paperweights. I have been collecting them ever since, and never ceased to be amazed at how unique and special each one is as a work of art. I have seen paperweights with some of the tiniest canes, 1/8" in size, that are nothing short of impressive.

    Paperweights are the ultimate expression of the glass makers art. Understanding that the human hand can never touch the molten glass makes these miniature art objects even more mystifying.

    weird to think that the corning museum has a better lit glass production area than a professional studio/factory.
