The PP1 is a 3 inch paperweight with 13-14 radial spokes and a standard 1-1-2-2 pattern of millefiore canes. The details of the canes, spokes and colouring vary considerably and it is not easy to find two identical weights. Made over a long period the earlier ones have fire ground bases and are sometimes quite similar to Strathern paperweights of the same design. Latter ones from about 1978 have a hollow ground base and a P signature cane and are more precise. This particular example has nice contrast and some interesting individual canes.
