    Description

    The color reminds of this Blenko paperweight reminds me of atomic green.  Atop a cloud of green sits a single bubble with a few random smaller bubbles about.   I'm not sure what they used to achieve this hue of green, but it sure is different.  I bought this paperweight at least 35 years ago and it was old then, so I'm assuming it's from the 60's or 70's?  It has very few fine scratches on it, and as you can see the glass is somewhat rippled, which to me gives it an other-worldly effect (especially when it's coupled with the atomic green color).  For its age, it's in good condition ...please view all photos to make your own determination.  3" high x 3" wide.  Please be advised I do not accept returns.
