Antique Boston & Sandwich red pears paperweight. Two russet pears hang from opposite sides of a slender stem shared with four serrated, dark green leaves, over clear ground.

Most of these refreshingly simple designs give the appearance of fruit just plucked from a tree."–The Art of the Paperweight–The Boston & Sandwich and New England Glass Companies. Diameter 2 3/4".
