This set of three decorative paperweights from France, crafted at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, exemplifies the artisanal glasswork of its era.

The glass is imbued with deep colors—emerald green, cobalt blue, and bright sky blue—each marbled with swirling white and lighter streaks unique to every piece. The highly polished finish brings out the intensity and depth of the hues, allowing light to play across the multiple facets. The faceted edges and smooth sides give each paperweight a sense of substance, while the bold color contrasts reflect the decorative trends of the late 19th century, closely aligned with eclectic style. Substantial and stable, these pieces serve both as practical desk accessories and as decorative objects. The set is preserved in very good condition, with minor surface scratches and small chips typical for its age and use. Within these glass forms, one can sense the spirit of the fin de siècle—a time when even everyday objects acquired a decorative dimension. The smooth surfaces and marbled colors evoke the ambiance of the Belle Époque, when
