centuries-old craft, expanding a tradition with new and vital work.
These contemporary factories and studio artists are largely responsible for the current paperw eight renaissance. The finest work currently being produced has an unmistakable presence to it. There is an accompanying philosophical element that even enhances this presence. The quality is evident to both curators and collectors, who now number in the thousands. Considering the work of contemporary artists and the growing number of collections in museums and private homes, we are clearly in the midst of a vital and exciting new era in the art of the paperweight.
