Featured 1 1/2" floral glass paperweight large marble sized, signed

This glass floral ball is 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Half again bigger than a shooter marble. This may well be Chinese, but it has a signature on it so thought I'd see if anyone recognizes. Thanks.




You can see the signature on this photo below, around 6 o'clock. Was nearly impossible to photograph. Drawing of it following this photo...

 

Oooo thats pretty !

 

Made by Z ? in 2013?

 

It’s extremely high quality.

 

No idea, except that it doesn't read as Chinese.

 

Not mass market Chinese, certainly. It’s a good maker, wherever it’s from.

"My marbles are signed ZS, and are dated with the year in which they were made."

 

This is a great lead, Marote. I just tried to join the FB page Zariel Shore references in the WP listing.

If they'll have me, I'll post a question about this one and report back!

Agree with Kent, that the "13" is likely for 2013. Marote, the one you linked looks similar to mine, so we'll see. Definitely a Z in the sig.... the "S", we'll see!

Thanks for all of the responses above!

 

Found one by Zariel, and the sig doesn't look like yours

 

Thank you, Marote. That is very kind of you to find that (incredible research!) and post it.

I just got an email OK on the FB art glass marble site. I'll post it on there tomorrow. Finger's crossed, maybe will get a lead!

Will report back.

 

I hope you get an identification!
