In 1967 Stuart Drysdale was given a copy of Woman’s Day magazine featuring an article on antique glass paperweights. When he showed the magazine to his glassworkers at Strathearn, they all said they could make them. The next year he left Strathearn with several of his glassworkers to start one of the most successful glass factories in modern history, Perthshire Paperweights. Their mantra was excellence and they succeeded. This book documents their history, production techniques and the hundreds of unique paperweight designs that they produced from their beginning in 1968 until 1997 when this book was published.

<p>In 2009 there were no books published that were devoted to the paperweights of Paul Ysart. This master craftsman produced superb paperweights for nearly 50 years. So, after many years of collecting the paperweights of Paul Ysart and accumulating data describing his designs, colors, backgrounds, canes, bottom finishes, etc., it became obvious that this publication was necessary. In it, you will find the information needed to identify a Paul Ysart paperweight, as well as a catalog of all his designs, garlands, and backgrounds that he mixed to produce the myriad of different weights found today. A valuable addition for any collector of Paul Ysart glass paperweights.</p>
