Chinese copies from the 1930s and the latest fakes and copies are shown, which every collector should know about.

The authoritative text includes new information that will fascinate collectors, and many rare and exceptional paperweights appear here that have never before been published.

Pricing information and a detailed glossary are included.

This important book belongs on the bookshelf of all paperweight enthusiasts, and will particularly appeal to all who are interested in glass production.
