Closed at 279","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a rare abstract paperweight by Shona Spittal. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is called Istanbul and is dated to 1992. It comes from a limited edition of only 650 weights (closed at 279). It originally retailed for £100 - which reflected the complexity of the design. This paperweight is No 226.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe weight is egg-shaped with a double conjoined polished facet to the front. The ground of the base is a harlequin one and made of four coloured glass sections of red, purple, yellow, and blue glass - these sections weld together and rise in the center of the weight - taking on the form of Turkish minarets possibly shapes based on those found on the Blue Mosque in Istanbul \/ or more probably the shapes and colours of Turkish Circus Tents.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a very sophisticated weight that is in good vintage condition - with no chips, scratches, or damages.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI have been unable to find another one of these on offer for sale - so it is deemed to be a rarer weight - this is reflected in my asking price for this special one. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePostage will be with Royal Mail Tracked Post. This will be applied at the checkout.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39393999847488,"sku":"Code 416 H Middle Drawer","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/1992-caithness-paperweight-istanbul-limited-edition-of-650-closed-at-279-scottish-662.webp?v=1784987465","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/scottish-paperweight-vintage-1992-caithness-paperweight-istanbul-limited-edition","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
