Art Glass Carrot Top Paperweight Looks lifelike! What an amazing set of skills and artistry to create such a beautiful art piece. Incredibly, everything inside the piece is also glass. Glass paperweights first gained popularity in the mid-19th century after being displayed at various expositions, most notably the Great Exhibition of 1851 at London’s Crystal Palace. Marvels of artistic skill and also affordable, paperweights soon became the ultimate desk accessory, bringing flowers and other natural subjects that perished in the winter into the home — there may not have been flowers in the garden, but they could still surround you as you wrote your letters.
