This piece still carries its original "Made in Taiwan, R.O.C." foil label. The controlled bubble pattern gives the glass an almost meditative quality, with each bubble precisely placed and catching light differently depending on where you put it. A flat bottom lets it sit perfectly still on a desk or shelf while doing exactly what a great paperweight should: make you stop and look.
